I think we have no chance of success until LyX is a gnome application

 It is a representation of a playpus-like creature (a bill, a tail and

 It was originally meant to be a place-holder till someone with real talent

I kind of like the little LyX-creature. It's grown on me. ;-)

Guess I'll just have to wait and see if someone comes up with something better, though.

Desktop icon

2001-01-29 Thread alex

Hi LyX people!

Just a little question: I'd like to have a LyX icon on my desktop to
quickly launch the program! Doesn't the LyX team have released anyone?

The INSTALL readme file in the source package of lyx-1.1.6 tells about
an icon (lyx.xpm) that can be used to display lyx-documents in
filemanagers (as is) but I have not found it in the images/ directory!

I think it would be a good idea to create a desktop icon for the
launcher of the executable! Perhaps I should try to create it by myself
and then submit it to the LyX team!

Thank you in advance for the answer! Goodbye!

Launchers and stuff are handled in several different ways by the several
different window managers out there. Both Gnome and KDE provide easy ways to
set these up, and you can tell them to use the LyX icon provided. 

For window manager that don't provide launchers, less elegant solutions include
starting LyX automatically when you start the wm, inconified. Again,
wm-specific.
