RE: greek characters in index?
For example, the document source initially contains $\Delta$x which displays as upper case delta followed by x. If I select the displayed delta and x and click on Lyx'x Insert index entry button, the document source changes to \index{\Deltax}$\Delta$x but when I try to generate an index I get an undefined control sequence error message. If I manually change the document source to \index{$\Delta$x}$\Delta$x there is no error message, and the index looks OK. Is this a legitimate way to proceed? If yes, does Insert index entry do this automatically in a more recent version of LyX than the one I'm using (which is 1.5.6)? Is there a better way to do this? You can just copy the math into the index and it will generate the correct LaTeX. I think you've found a bug. Can you report it to http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome ? Vincent
