>I had to change the lyx.rc file to use "/" instead of "\". Otherwise, of course, it fails to find the icon file. But then I do get lyx.coff (which I'm attaching in case you need to use it for testing). Now how to link it into the main executable? (Well, and longer term, how to build it automatically, though we could just put lyx.coff into development/cmake/, too.) Riki > > > Kornel > > >
