Yep, that was the problem. I assumed that upgrading to LyX 1.1.6fix2 would
either fix this problem in a backwards compatible way OR automatically all
multi-citation references to remove the problematic space. In case anyone
else comes across this, here's the Perl script I wrote to remove the spaces:
----------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl
while (<>) {
chop;
if ($_ =~ /\\begin_inset LatexCommand \\cite{(.*)}/) {
$cites = $1;
$cites =~ s/ file://gi;
print "\\begin_inset LatexCommand \\cite{$cites}\n";
} else {
print $_ . "\n";
}
}
----------------------------------
Thanks everyone for your help!
Ramon
