batch lyx2latex

2000-03-20 Thread Geoff Russell

Hi List,

I've a work around for a lyx2latex batch program. I can't believe I'm the
only person who wants to do this, so here it is.

First, thanks to Andre Poenitz for the command line option to do
the export:

$ lyx --export latex FILENAME.lyx

Now the trick is to stop the gui poping up. On linux running XFree86 there
is a virtual frame buffer X server, that acts a bit like /dev/null. It is
available for other platforms also.

Start the virtual frame buffer X server with a suitable display number:

$ Xvfb :1 & 

This will sit there forever handling x protocol commands sent to that display.

Now run lyx with the display set to this x server:

   $ /bin/rm -f FILENAME.tex && lyx -display :1 --export latex FILENAME.lyx

We must remember to get rid of the tex file before we start, otherwise
lyx will hang in a dialog asking us if we want to delete it!

Bye,
Geoff Russell

Re: page numbers on first chapters

2000-03-20 Thread Jon R. Fox

To answer my own question:
Here's what I discovered will make this happen:
I can use fancyhdr.sty to redefine the plain pagestyle and then use
\usepackage{sectsty}
\chapterfont{\thispagestyle{plain}} %adds page numbers to pages with
chapter headings.

I also changed the chapter heading font and centered the heading on the
page with  \large and \nohang\centered .
Thank goodness to CTANs searchable index!

Nameserver problem

2000-03-20 Thread Mate Wierdl

Hi,

Our department's nameserver is down (no secondary!), so there may be
some interruption of this list.  In particular, please contact the
list owner at 

lyx@[141.225.11.87]

temporarily, and do not use my address at
wierdlmpc.msci.memphis.edu. I'll let you know when things will be back
to normal.

Sorry,

Mate

Re: Lyx just core dumped - how I fixed it

It is almost certain, based on what you stated that your xforms version
was a bad one for your libc version.

As a general rule, a lyx core dump on startup is nearly always a system
library problem (including the possibilites of bad xforms version,
problems with the C library or X11 library problems).

The xforms on ftp.sylvan.com works with RH 6.0 and RH 6.1, so you installed
the right version for your system (which is why it now works).

Cheers!

Lyx just core dumped - how I fixed it

2000-03-20 Thread Enrique Perez-Terron

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-

A while ago I installed lyx-1.1.2-1.i386.rpm on my RedHat 6.0 or 6.1 (I do not
remember. Now I have replaced most, if not all the redhat rpms with the 6.1
version.)  Since then I could not start lyx, it just said "Segmentation fault
(core dumped)".

The other day I saw that a new release, 1.1.4 had arrived, and I decided to
install it. I also upgraded my installation of tetex to 1.0.6-7.386.rpm.

The download site has xforms-0.88-3.i386.rpm, but I had 0.88.1-51 installed,
which should be newer.

The newly installed lyx also dump core.

To investigate a little I have tried to see what is going on using strace.
Lyx opens a socket connection to the X server, and writes and reads to this
socket a good number of times and then it gets a SIGSEGV:

7660  write(4, "T\1\4\0!\0\0\0\377q\377q\377\306"..., 16) = 16
7660  read(4, "\0\vX\1\6\0\300\7\0\0T\0\270\17/"..., 32) = 32
7660  write(4, "P\1\3\0\7\0\300\7!\0\0\0\20\1\t\0"..., 48) = 48
7660  read(4, "\1\207Z\1\0\0\0\0^\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 32) = 32
7660  write(4, "\20\1\t\0\31\0\300\7XDCCC_LINEAR"..., 36) = 36
7660  read(4, "\1\207[\1\0\0\0\0_\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 32) = 32
7660  write(4, "\24\0\6\0*\0\0\0_\0\0\0\23\0\0\0"..., 24) = 24
7660  read(4, "\1\0\\\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"..., 32) = 32
7660  --- SIGSEGV ---
7660  +++ killed by SIGSEGV +++

I checked the versions of xforms closer using rpm -q -i, and discovered that my
exisitng xforms was built by suse. I do not know if the redhat and suse
distributions are incompatible in any significant way, but just in case I
uninstalled tetex-lyx, lyx, xform, and installed again, this time using the
xforms provided at the lyx ftp site.

The output of the installation began like this:

[root@arabia packages]# rpm -i tetex-lyx-1.1.4-fix2.i386.rpm lyx-1.1.4-fix2.i386.rpm 
xforms-0.88-3.i386.rpm
Re-configuring LyX for your system...
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.73727: /usr/share/lyx: No such file or directory
/var/tmp/rpm-tmp.73727: ./configure: No such file or directory
execution of script failed
Configuring LyX for your system...
checking for a LaTeX2e program... (latex latex2e)

Seeing the error messages I just repeated the uninstall command, and installed
the same three packages again, one at the time: xforms, lyx and then, tetex-lyx.
This time there were no error messages.

And, finally, lyx started!

Since I did too many things between each trial, I do not know exactly what made
the problem go away.

I hope this can be of use to others.

Ghostview 1.5 with Ghostscript 5.50 on a Solaris box defintely HAS the
problem. 

GV 3.5.8 (the usual version) with Ghostscript 5.10 does also have the bug.

Ghostscript 3.33 was unable to read my test file at all :(

Maybe GV and ghostview are incompatable with newer versions of
Ghostscript? More test cases from anyone?

And to all readers on lyx mailinglist too:
- One solution is to use "ps2ps" (comes with ghostscript), but the
  resulting Postscript file is horrible. (ps2pdf followed pdf2ps
  produces the same horrible Postscript file)
- Better way is to convert it to, say, JPGs, rotate them, and view with
  Xv.
- The best way so far is to use "ps2pdf", open the file in Acrobat Reader,
  and use "print to file" in acroread.

I will try if newer version of xpdf could do the pdf->ps conversion
(0.5 was unable to read the pdf file).

The X code may be creating sockets itself. However, the first thing to
check is that you have upgraded you xforms library to a version
compiled against glibc 2.1.

Re: Various problems with lyx

Just give a look to the attached lyx file. I think it will adress some
of your problems (as it does for me...)

the (lcr)head and (lcr)foot commands tells what to write in the
various header fields.

headrulewidth controls the width of the top horizontal bar.

markboth tells to put the following text in the leftmark variable.
So you can change as you like.
(you can use the same command to change conclusion and references)


the last renewcommand gives the format of the heading for the
following chapters, that is here : 
1. My first chapter title   5
It can be easily custumised (if you have a good latex reference manual
;)).

Hope it will help you !

Try to configure with --with-included-gettext, or add "-lintl" in the

The Problem is that a float cannot be broken over pages! So this is a
problem all floats have! There is a trick to use a longtable and put
a caption in the longtable look at the examample file I attach.

I like to implement this feature natively in a future version of LyX :)

Hope this helps!

socket problem in Gnome Redhat 6.1

2000-03-20 Thread robin . c . smith

I have been using lyx for a long time under KDE/Redhat 5.2 with no problems.

I have recently upgraded to Redhat 6.1 ( a decision that has cost me a lot
of time ).

My Lyx no longer works but just core dumps with a segmentation violation.
I ran strace on lyx and found it seems to fail writing to a socket created
in /tmp

Any quick workarounds? What is this socket doing? I cannot find a refence to
sockets in the Lyx source code.

Thanks in advance

Robin

Hi again!

This works great, but I have another problem, too. I use the default fancy
style for my headings and get 'Table of Contents' as heading (and not
'Introduction') in my Introduction. Any hints?

...

I've tried this, but it adds a horizontal line at the top of the page and
the page number '1' at the bottom :-(.

...

Unfortunately I get an error (sorry, I don't know the exact error message
anymore) as I inserted the Latex command at the beginning of the document
(before the toc).

Thanks in advance for your help,

Klaus

Landscape Postscript Problems

2000-03-20 Thread Emanuele Olivetti

I found that Aladdin GSView for Windows has not the problem of "text cut
on the right", belonging (probably) to wrong bounding box.
Also ghostview 1.5 on UX-HP works well... (old ghostscript 2.6.1 !)

I think that only GV by Johannes Plass has the bug.

So I'll use GSView for Winz :-< for my presentation...



Stay Tuned,


Emanuele

Did you try to add a label at the beginning of the first footnote?
