Hello,
I just commited a fix to cvs which fixes for me the backspace-crash
that has been plaguing LyX for some time. Go try latest cvs and tell
me what happens. I am interested to know whether your favourite way of
crashing LyX still works and whether editing still works as intended.
If you are using lyx-1.1.4fix2, please try the appended patch. If it
works, I will release fix3 very soon.
JMarc

word processors to allow it. It confuses the user.
