That can be done. But notice that before doing that we need to develop a better handling of layout and module files inside lyx2lyx. I am thinking particularly about the support for user directories, after all if the use has a layout in his personal directories that overrides the system version. At the same time we have to support the inclusion of other layouts and styles from other files. This is not difficult but it is a laborious task and it also has other potential benefits like seeing the complete version of a layout file. The analogue of this is "g++ -E file.cpp" that stops after the preprocessor has done its job. So this can be done but not for 2.4. :-( -- José Abílio -- lyx-devel mailing list lyx-devel@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-devel
