we could in filetools make a "pseudo" namespace (since the compilers
we use do not always support namespaces):
struct lyx {
static getcwd(...);
static chdir(...);
};
and use these in our code:
lyx::getcwd(...);
I think this is the best solution. path.h should be rewritten to use
this and lyx::getcwd should be able to use the functions needed by the
os.
a pity that structs used as namespaces is closed.

translation units.)

I'm sorry but I've no idea why there's an empty value. Actually, the

AGU format support?
LyX friends, I have been corresponding with someone at the American Geophysical Union about their LaTeX support. You may know that AGU publishes a number of journals, the best known of which is no doubt JGR, the Journal of Geophysical Research. AGU makes available a number of style files (yes, 2.09) to allow the preparation of manuscripts. Unfortunately, no support for BibTeX. Also, no support (really) for LaTeX2e. The inimitable Patrick Daly has thus given unto us a package called AGUPLUS, which fixes both problems, and then some. Now my AGU correspondent (who told me about AGUPLUS, btw) reported that AGU is preparing to launch a new package for LaTeX2e soon. This would be an opportunity for us to get LyX in the door with a MAJOR "customer". I was told that AGU has had problems with their contributors; many dislike to use LaTeX because the mark-up is experienced as difficult (which it undoubtedly is, compared to WYSIWYG). Yet, the AGU technical people are committed to LaTeX also because it makes it easy to produce abstracts in (decent) HTML (or even whole journals? I'm not sure.) LyX would be just the thing for them. I studied the AGU LaTeX format, and noticed immediately what I think will be the biggest problem (there are a number of smaller ones as well). The floats provided are figure figure* table table* plate plate* planotable planotable* See the problem? Floats are hardwired in LyX currently (1.0). Of course this could be worked around with ERT, but... what about making floats user-definable like they are in LaTeX? How hard? What are the plans for the new LyX version? This is an opportunity really (how many of you are publishing in AGU journals btw?). What do you think? Enjoy, Martin Vermeer [EMAIL PROTECTED]
