When I'm typing Hebrew, I want to open braces by typing Shift+0  and close
by Shift+9
When I'm typing English, I want to open braces with Shift+0 and close with
Shift+0

I'm not sure what you mean by "correct input" .

Re: Make text appear with formula on same page

I have a multi-line formula that I would like to be shown with some text in

The math is as follows

X = Y + Z
2X = 2Y + A

The whole passage is supposed to appear together on one page. Help?!

Is the problem that it isn't necessarily on one page? If so, then put it 
in a minipage (Box).

Well, these are different. Propositions are theorem-like entities, where
Parts and Sections are structural units. They're done differently. Which
one do you need?

RE: writing a vita with Modern

[Scott Kostyshak]

Hi Josh,

Please always send the operating system and LyX version that you are using 
whenever your report a problem (even if you think it has nothing to do with the 
problem).

etoolbox.sty is missing. That means you might need to install it (the 
alternative is that it is installed but it is not being found). The package is 
located here:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/etoolbox/

I don't know how you install packages in MiKTeX but it might be easier for you 
to install it from MiKTeX instead of doing it manually.

Also, modernCV.lyx has been changed recently. Maybe those changes will fix your 
problem.

Here is the most recent version of modernCV.lyx
http://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyxgit/lib/examples/modernCV.lyx

You can see the changes here:

Josh,

Thank you for the info. Note that 2.0.4 is different from 2.0. Also, it's 
better if we respond to the list. That way others can view the discussion and 
can offer advice.

Did you install the etoolbox package?

Don't forget to do tool>reconfigure after you install so that LyX learns about 
the new package.
