In the same line, why not output the dvi/ps/... even in error ?
Using laTeX, I don't count the number of documents which got printed and
used with remaining errors. When you're at the deadline, you
become less particular about unsolved typographic problems...
Of course, export to LaTeX, compile and xdvi solves it, but
that's a good reason to do it the same way in LyX. « Normal » LyX users
(i.e those who never use ERT) won't see the difference as LyX
hopefully is never in error by itself :-)
As we are to preferences, did I understand correctely that 1.1.6
does not allow anymore to have the current dir as default ?
With the new interface, you have to give en abolute path, so that
the browse menu offers « Home » or the lasr dir set in the preferences dialog.
. does not seem any more allowed.
