RE: Polytonic Greek input?
A Lyx newbee myself I am a long way to have it replacing TeXworks but under the latter and pdfLaTeX I use the command \usepackage{psibycus} % to use scalable Type1 fonts and with an ADSL connection to the web TeXworks, at least in my configuration, would automatically download what is required from CTAN. See http://ctan.tche.br/fonts/greek/ibygrk/doc/generic/ibycus4/README for info on Ibycus4, version 4.5 as of 2004-10-27 Then for instance: {\greek{})Apollw'nios Eu)dh'mw| xai'rein} {\greek{}eu)tu'xei} would reproduce Apollonius' greetings and Vale to Eudemus: the oxytonic accent on the omega is given by w' ; the soft (lenis) breathing on the upsilon by u); a subscripted iota on omega is w|; etc... as indicated in the README above. Ibycus gives alternative packages to write Ancient Greek poetry. A Lyx expert might tell us how to include Ibycus in Lyx. Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2012 18:05:37 -0500 Subject: Polytonic Greek input? From: stefano.fran...@gmail.com To: lyx-users@lists.lyx.org Can anyone remind me of how to input Greek (polytonic) accents? I looked on the wiki, but I could not quite figure out how to enter the breathing accents. Searching the list did not help either. I used to know it, but I can't remember how I learned it...
