I have updated the Qt patches and the howto at Enrico> http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LyXOnCygwin Enrico> -- Enrico ----------------------------------------- SH: Ok, I will give it another try. I did notice an apparent discrepancy in the instuctions from the LyXonCygwin page: ----------------------------------------------------- In this howto all examples are shown for tcsh, but it is trivial to change them for bash. Mainly, it is simply a matter of substituting "export XXX=YYY" in place of "setenv XXX YYY" (or simply use tcsh instead of bash). -------------------------------------------------- If your Qt source tree is not in /usr/local/src/qt3, you should now modify as appropriate the following line export QTDIR=/usr/local/src/qt3 at the very start of the following sh scripts: config.tests/unix/endian.test config.tests/unix/ipv6.test config.tests/unix/largefile.test config.tests/unix/ptrsize.test config.tests/unix/stl.test --------------------------------------------- SH: It appears to me that "export QTDIR=/usr/local/src/qt3" is written in bash syntax rather than "all" tcsh syntax? I did try the tcsh shell and I liked how it displayed the contents (directory vs. file). I have a Mingw directory of Qt3 from LyX140-pre3 already but I will follow the instructions on the webpage as a proof of concept (hope). I'm (un?)fortunately perfectionistic. Supercitelfully yours, Stephen
