hey folks,

i have got a problem, which needs to be solved urgently...

i worked always with latex-plain text before, that's why i got stuck 
with lyx mode. too late to change to plain text editing because the 
deadline for my excerpt is tomorrow evening.


now the problem:
how is it possible to enter this 'inference rule' sign in math mode?
to make it more clear, here a short ascii description:


No problem when you know how to do it in plain latex.
This because lyx allows chunks of plain latex inside the document.
Use the menu Insert->tex or the TeX button. Then you can write
a chunk of plain latex.

thank you so much!




If you have a way to do this in LaTeX, you should be able to open an ERT 
inset (Insert->TeX, control-L, or click the TEX button and just type 
your LaTeX code into the box (including $...$ if you need to be in math 
mode).  You could also try opening a math inset (Insert->Math->Inline or 
Display, C-m or C-S-m, or click the (a+b)/c button) and type your LaTeX 
code in there.  That method is probably a bit more trouble-prone.  It 
may not look good in the LyX GUI, but it should produce the same DVI 
output you would get working directly with LaTeX.  (If you use any 
packages to do it, they need to be loaded with appropriate \usepackage{} 
commands in Layout->Document->Preamble.)


If you don't have a LaTeX solution, you might take a look at the 
mathpartir package (http://pauillac.inria.fr/~remy/latex/).  I have not 
used it myself, but it looks as though it might do what you want.

Would it work with either:
- matrix + spaces to separate
- insert the expression as an image (yes it's quick and dirty, but as  
a last resort...)
