How to automatically copy certain files into the tmp directory?

2009-08-19 Thread Rainer M Krug
Hi

I am using ERT boxes for inserting movies into BEAMER presentations
and a few other things as well. The problem is, that the files I need
in the temporary directory where the LaTeX file is compiled are not
automatically copied there and I have to copy them manually. Is there
a way of specifying them (e.g. in the preamble), so that they are
automatically copied along with the other files needed?

Thanks

Rainer

defining custom converter with added copier section in preferences
could help.

I looked at it, but this is quite static and I have to maintain a
script in addition to the LyX file (unless I put all files in one
directory which is copied).

Is there a way to let LaTeX copy the files, i.e. that I can specify
them in the preamble?

i guess you can invent some kind of script which would be generic for all your
beamer use cases without need to maintain it for each single file.
