Is there a converter to bring a book written in WordPerfect 5.1 (DOS,
CLI) into LyX? I have such a bo

byte-for-byte suitable for Devuan and has no systemd dependencies.
Nothing in LyX is specific to an init system, but Debian has a habit of

Some questions:
1. Where do I put these four files so they're visible to my (CTAN
installed) TeXLive system yet not intermingled with TeXLive provided
fonts?
2. How do I install them? I assume I run texhash, but what else?
Th
oes right to PDF.
Anyway, stuff like this is why I use shellscripts to compile my LyX
files. I think they're called "batch files" or "powerscripts" in
Windows. Compiling with shellscripts, I'm not beholden to LyX' current
settings, and it's a lot easier to d

any voices can effortlessly narrow it down. This will weed out
the "defective user" caused bugs, and will produce a pinpoint accurate
symptom description for the overworked developer.

uld go in an HTML/ePub
document. If we get a couple more people with Python and document
expertise, we could fix this, as long as the LyX->HTML export remains
well-formed XML.
I bet maybe four of us could get this done in 3 months, no C++ required.

Ixnay on bugtrackers. I'm not going to learn 30 different bugtrackers,
when they consistently ask the wrong questions and aren't responded to
anyway. I'd rather code around th

standard of not indenting the first paragraph after a heading, and
posted it on the list, asking that somebody forward it to the

all I got for my trouble was criticism. Screw it.

Also, the good thing about the XML-parsing Python post-processor
approach is that, as time goes on, you can fix any problems newly
discovered and/or newly added by LyX: You're in control as long as they
continue to export well-formed XML HTML, which of course isn't a
for-sure thing.

ut file because you
WANT your PDF styles to look very different from your HTML styles.
This is all accomplished with a very easy to write Python program that
will postprocess the exported file in a half a second. If the exported
file is *really* well formed XML, you can check it with my

to use Python 3.

style.
I did this in the past, and it worked. Obviously an all-LyX solution is
better, but one nice thing about LyX is its native format is still
reasonably parsable so if nothing else works, writing such a program is
always a way to get what you need. Basically, it just adds one more
short ste
the styles until yours looks exactly like the sample.
I haven't discussed the nuts and bolts of custom layout grammar. If you
need that, give me back a shout.

I wouldn't suggest replying to these guys. They're trying to put the LyX
project in the role of their lawyer, without payment. Personally, I
think the GPL2 is clear enough for me to stake my business on, but if
they have questions, they can hire a lawyer.
Or, if they don't like the project not act

asy it is to do in LyX.
In this section I've merely scratched the surface of ways LyX could
become an everyday tool for millions of people. Just doing a few of
these things would go beyond making LyX welcoming --- they'd make LyX
extremely attractive for the general population.

e again, all past attempts at LyXHTML have unnecessarily bitten off
way more than they could chew. Just pass us the styles, and we'll take
care of the style to appearance translation, *at the right time*!
