Changing from \pmatrix to \matrix
I wrote a \pmatrix, then I changed my idea and I want a simple \matrix: is there a way to switch from the previous environment to the desired one without rewriting or copy/paste the matrix? I have not been able to do it, nor to find help on the docs... :-( Thanks a lot Fabio
Reverse search with xdvi
Hi all,
I configured reverse search as explained in section 5.6.3 of the
Additional features manual.
In particular, I setted
Preferences-File Handling-File formats
to
xdvi -editor lyxeditor.sh %f %l
and I created, as suggested, a lyxeditor.sh executable file in my
$HOME/bin which contains
#!/bin/sh
LYXPIPE=$HOME/.lyx/lyxpipe
COMMAND=LYXCMD:revdvi:server-goto-file-row:$1 $2
echo $COMMAND ${LYXPIPE}.in || exit
read ${LYXPIPE}.out || exit
Now, when I produce a dvi if I ctrl+click then every
time I get in xdvi the following error message
Command lyxeditor.sh /tmp/lyx_tmpdir.MT4824/lyx_tmpbuf2/test.tex 1534 exited
with error code 2
$HOME/bin/lyxeditor.sh: 5: read: arg count
Nevertheless, I in the lyx source file I am correctly positioned in the
intended line.
So, all in all it works, but getting allways the error message is a bit
annoying...
Is there a fix to this? What is wrong in lyxeditor.sh?
Please note that if I comment out the last line, I don't get the error any
longer and it still works: so is the last line necessary?
Thanks a lot
F.
Re: Reverse search with xdvi
Anyway does changing the line
read ${LYXPIPE}.out || exit
into
read TMP ${LYXPIPE}.out || exit
work for you?
Pavel
Yes this works. Thanks.
But is there any difference with regards to simply comment it?
To answer your previous question:
yes, there is a reason for I want to use named pipe. The reason is that I
often edit tex files via vim and so my Xresource for xdvi.editor is setted
to vim: using pipe I thought I could be able to use reverse search
regardless of the way xdvi is invoked and indeed that seems the case to
me, by the tests I did.
Finally, I will collect all the necessary commands which work in my case
for inverse/direct search, for reference just in case somebody else will
need them since they are a little bit different from the ones listed in
the documentation:
xdvi:
inverse search:
Tools-Preferences-File Handling-File formats
xdvi -editor lyxeditor.sh %f %l
direct search:
Tools-Preferences-Output-General
xdvi -nofork -sourceposition $$n $$t $$o -editor lyxeditor.sh %f
%l
okular:
inverse search:
Tools-Preferences-File Handling-File formats
okular --unique
direct search:
Tools-Preferences-Output-General
okular --unique $$o#src:$$n $$f
The executable lyxeditor.sh should contain
#!/bin/sh
LYXPIPE=$HOME/.lyx/lyxpipe
COMMAND=LYXCMD:revdvi:server-goto-file-row:$1 $2
echo $COMMAND ${LYXPIPE}.in || exit
read TMP ${LYXPIPE}.out || exit

About reimporting from latex
Hi all,
I know that exporting to latex and then reimporting to lyx is not that
smooth, but I made a simple try which surpise me:
- create a new lyx file,
- in Document - Settings - Document class choose article (AMS)
- insert a theorem (even just a word after it, no math nor images)
- export it to latex
This way you get a very simple and clean tex file. Now, in lyx create a
new file and import the saved tex file: instead of seeing
Theorem 1. etc.
you see
the ert
\begin{thm} etc. \end{thm}
and it doesn't even compile!
Am I missing something? If not, how is it possible that the conversion
fails even on a such simple and basic example?
TIA
Fabio

Hmm. I think this is a consequence of modularization of the AMS files. You
did this in 1.6.x, yes?
Sorry, I forgot to give my settings:
lyx 1.6.1 installed in ubuntu 8.10 via backport repository, with no
customization and a freshly created default ~/.lyx
We'll have to fix this, if so.
If you do, please let me know what I should do while waiting for the fix
in the repository.
Thanks
