You might try starting LyX from a console/x-terminal-emulator. Under Unix/X11, you can see error messages in ~/.xsession-errors (for programs not started from an x-term... When I launch LyX from a terminal (mac os x), all LaTeX and R traces are visible within that same terminal! Thanks

Hi, is there a way to cancel a pdflatex from LyX? I am currently working with some documents which take a lot of time to render, and sometimes I want to cancel before one it's finished. Currently I just kill LyX and relaunch. Cheers M. Speiser

Hi, I am currently using LyX+Sweave a whole lot, huge fan of the concept! One of the few weaknesses of this solution though is that the error message (when there is something wrong with the R code) isn't much help: An error occurred whilst running R CMD Sweave 'myfile.Rnw' Is there a trick to
