Re: linguistics module missing

[sefi p]

thank you, finally I managed.
somehow i managed to completely get my installation stuck, so I reinstalled
(with the alternative installer), updated, configured, went to mikeTek
package manager and installed specifically the convington, I just played
around -
most of the documentation concerns Lyx, I didn't understand exactly how to
add packages and why wouldn't they be added and installed on demand,
yes, you're right, it's a GUI for latex. but I don't think I found in the
wiki explicit instructions how to add to mikeTek or install, you know?.. but
maybe i wasn't looking hard enough.

thank you for your support!

  still ti doesn't help. what dependency still am I missing? why
 doesn't
 it come with the installer if the linguistic module is supposed to be
 supported?

 The linguistics module manual (LyXHelpSpecific ManualsLinguistics
 Manual) lists the extra packages required for the module, and
 Covington is among them. I think the key thing to keep in mind here is
 that LyX is just a gui for LaTeX--even though it is now pretty
 sophisticated, it relies on the LaTeX distribution for certain
 functions.

 You should also have a look at the wiki page:
 http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LinguistLyX . it lists recommended packages
 that aren't always included in default installations.

linguistics module missing

[sefi p]

Hello,

i d/l recently Lyx 1.6.4 for windows, tried to load linguistics module.
however, it tells me I miss a package, and states: covington.sty.
I think i found it, then copied it under the latex directory. I see it
appears in the list of styles.

still ti doesn't help. what dependency still am I missing? why doesn't
it come with the installer if the linguistic module is supposed to be
supported?

thank you very much,
Sefi.
