Hello LyXers,
again an update to the installer:

In other words, I think that the installer should lead the user
through the installation. It shouldn't "just do it" for him. That's
why I think a summary page at the beginning listing everything that
LyX has found (or not found) that it can use would be a good thing.
It is implemented now. Please have a look if you could agree with this
solution.
But there are more improvements:
- The installer comes now with the actual documentation files
(Argh, I just see that I shipped the wrong files for LateXConfig.lyx)
- The installer searches now for Acrobat and add its path to
lyxrc.default so that LyX can find it while configuring.
- Now also LyX's configuration files are deleted while uninstalling LyX.
The files are under
C:\Documents and Settings\name of current user\Application Data\
Remaining issues:
- I need the registry path for Acroread. If anybody has installed it,
please send it to me.
- I need the registry path for fpTeX.
- If Acrobat/Acrored if found by LyX's configure script the following
entry is made to lyxrc.defaults:
\viewer pdf "acrobat"
But we need also the entries
\viewer pdf2 "acrobat"
\viewer pdf3 "acrobat"
Simple fix attached, please apply.
regards Uwe
