and the old posts from when we corrected the licensej
Argh, I didn't include before sending. Here are the old posts from my old mail, headers and all, with the discussions from when we fixed the license. I'd forgotten just how much more, uhh, perturbed John Weiss was about the High Church of Emacs than I was :) And it was Asger, not Lars, who committed the change. I'd been expecting one more round of editing, so there's a clause missing. 5) should have become 6), with the new 5) reserving the future editing to us rather than the FSF. (I wouldn't include this now; we really only get one bite at the apple on clarification).

more license posts from back then
OK, I've dug them out; here is the context of the license. Also note that it was Asger, not Lars, that committed the (correct) license. However, I was expecting one more round of editing when he did it--it's missing a clause reserving future changes to lyx rather than the FSF (would have become 5), pushing 5) to 6)).

the patch that put the license in error
Sorting through my old mail, I found this. It's John's patch that uncorrected the license. Reversing this solves the problem, as neither John nor anyone else had the legal standing to make this change. This patch should be reversed. Note that QT/xforms is not the only difference; the other clauses adress real anticipated problems.

I sat down, analyzed what happened, applied the law, and wrote the qualification to the license to describe what happened. I did *not* create the license; neither I nor anyone else (without consent of all developers ever) could possibly do this. The short version is that when he announced it as GPL, his actions contradicted this, and revoked the "boilerplate" language of the GPL that were inconsistent with his actions. Everyone that ever contributed code contributed under the actual license, not the GPL. However, as it held itself out as GPL, third parties would be able to take it as GPL (as the developers woudl be "estopped" from asserting the modified license). > Of course I remember your complaints a while ago, but I was not too > interested in licensing issues back than.

Lars included the paragraphs sometime while I was at Iowa State, which means sometime between 1996-1999.

I wrote the prior qualifications a few years ago, but John replaced that with what it says now. The problem is that that's just not what the law did on the initial release. Regardless of what the current "license" says, xforms does not have a special status; the entire clause of the putative GPL license was put aside when Matthias released the code, saying it was GPL but inviting people to redistribute. *Any* library can be used in the same manner as xforms, and we are powerless to object or assert that clause of the GPL. But what do I know; I'm just a lawyer who contributed time to get this right only to see it wiped aside without consulting me. hawk, esq.
I had to do a fresh checkout to compile
I've been trying to update on two machines for several days now, with no success. I've distcleaned, and even rm -r'd the src directory. Still no luck. I've run autogen.sh and reconfigure. I've shed hair on my keyboard. Ultimately, I removed the entire directory and did a fresh checkout. It compiled without a problem. OK, now this is really odd. It failed yesterday on both machines, and I've done the fresh checkout and successful compile on the workstation.

(Oh, dear; I'm agreeing with John again :) This is the Mac/Windows difference. Any idiot can sit down and use either (ok, today's windows; not older ones). Mac tends to have other and more efficient ways of doing things as you get experience--oddly, these stem from early MS products for mac, the company which has been systematically forcing everyone to stay in beginner mode.

You keep people who ar able to find more efficient ways of doing things (which go into finger memory). Lyx has three major advantages that I see over latex at the moment: 1) You can see your complicated equations, and coherently edit them. 2) Less keystrokes than latex for the same effect (including auto-termination). 3) You can sit down at it with no training. The first is big for new and experienced users; the second keeps experienced users, and the third catches new users. hawk, who would still like the vi interface to lyx :) > Efficiency is not exactly equal to usability.

be sufficient--these are the only ones that can already be on paper or
in someone else's hands . . . in fact, it would seem to be more useful
*not* to update numbering after opening the document . . .

more thoughts on including documents
I'm partially thinking out loud here, so bear with me as I say stupid things :) As I'm understanding them right now, all forms of include and insert actually make the other document part of the current document. What would be really useful in many circumstances (such as what I'm working in right now) would be the ability to include the output of the other file, rather than it's contents. For example, I want Appenix C to be the syllabus for my class. To make the final document, I'm going to have to break apart my document into the main body and the separator pages for the appendices, making a postscript file for each (with gv "save as", I suppose). and then use psmerge to put syllabii and such into the single output file. It would be useful to have something like an include that would cause the processing of the document to stop, the output of the "included" document inserted, and then processing of the original document again. But as I think this over, this would stil have the tex problem of having multiple titles and the like. OK, so maybe this is really a tex problem, and not a lyx one; I'm not sure. But it would be such a useful thing to be possible, that I thought I'd toss it out. hawk -- Richard E. Hawkins, Asst.

more sublte upper left on relyx
OK, I'm now happily importing tabulars. Well, mostly. I'm having
trouble with the left borders on multicolumnts. I start with:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\begin {tabular}
{|p{1.5in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|p{.4in}|}

\multicolumn{2}{c}{Exceptional} &
\multicolumn{2}{c}{Excellent} &
\multicolumn{2}{c}{Very Good} &
\multicolumn{2}{c}{Average} &
\multicolumn{2}{c}{Below Average} &
\multicolumn{2}{c}{Unsatisfactory} \\
LaTeX correctly renders this with no left border on the 1 cell
multicolumn. Lyx loses this, and turns it into |c|
If I manually edit the multicolumn in lyx, it will export the correct
latex. indeed, a diff shows that the extra | inserted by lyx is the
only difference in the two exported latex files.

That's not all, though. I stqrted with 15 defined; and that didn't

I've rebuilt again today, and it still appears utterly impossible to
import a latex tabular.
I'm not sure how a latex file with a chart could
get any simpler than this:
simple.tex:

latex handles this with no errors, but lyx says, "an error occurred wile
runing the script"

All of these, and more :)
With both magics added (and leave off the .tex or .lyx suffix!), I can
latex them both and latex produces a correct file. However, they still

complete inability to import latex tables at the moment?
I'm trying to get tables into lyx from a word document (I really don't want to fight that ill-formatted monster in starwriter!). I can dump to text well enough, but I want to keep the tables filled in. I was even able to trivially get the tables into latex with a bit of vi magic [ %s/^/ & / and then change the starting of the left columns to \\] latex handles these fine, and can display them. Lyx won't import it. Then, in a flash of insight, I made a trivial lyx file; "Hi" followed by a 2x2 tabular with all defaults, filled with a b c d Export this silly little file to latex, and try to import it back in. No dice. Do a cvs update, and the problem remains I've attached the offending file. hawk -- Richard E. Hawkins, Asst.

I'm pretty sure I'm using the default book class; I don't know how I

But it is :) Is there anyplace else I could have set something to
cause that?

Unfortunately, all I have accessible is Lamport's User GUide & Reference

leading dots in toc not until heading-3
I think I've been through this before . . . In the article class, the table of contents uses no leading dots for the sections, but it does for the subsections. My text, in book class, uses them for all levels. I don't see any ert setting this in either, or any preamble magic, and I can't find anything in the menus that seems to do it. -- Richard E.

glitch in epsi->png for latex export
I note that we now seem to be using tth to export to html . . .
Anyway, I have an epsi in my syllabus. When I export to html, instead
of getting a relative link and a png, I end up with a reference to
file://tmp/lyxdir_path_from_home_picture.png
Shouldn't the correct behavior be to end up with a local file and a
relative path? I'm baffled to think of any circumstance under which
what happens would actually be useful . . .
Oh, and I've attached the schedule file in question, for no better
reason than I'm pleased with myself :) I wrote a fortran program to
take a feeder file and produce this thing, after getting continually
frustrated with plan's output (which is hard to successfully include!).

right margin wrong for typewriter face
I don't know whether this is a lyx or latex issue, but the right margtin
is *very* wrong for the paragraphs in this document using the typewriter
face. The outer margin is set to .75", and it's practially 0.

still table troubles
Using what I was offered last week, I've produced some tables--but
with milde problems.
I've found that a table in the lower right of a 2x2 table gets me most
of the way on spaceing--but not quite there. I want the label in the
lower right to run sideways, as suggested. However, when I try to set
this cell to a multicolumn so that I can align it, I get an error of
"misplaced \omit \multicolumn{1}{|c|{Firm}. I expect to see \omit only
after tab marks or the\crof an alighment. Proceed,and I'll ignorethis
case.
I've (hopefully) attachedthe file

enumeration failure
At about page eleven (Conducting a Chi-square test), lyx displays the enumeration as 0 for each entry. The latex output renders correctly. Also, ^G to insert a greek character seems to have stopped working. Did a recent update clobber config files or some such? -- Richard E. Hawkins, Asst.

reconfigure reset me from aspell to ispell
I just tried to use the spellchecker. Apparently, reconfigure has reset me to ispell rather than aspell as I had previously set lyx to.

Aren't those those the functions I wrote for selecting the "current" word for the default insert-index? It seems to me that you replaced them a couple of years ago. If these *are* those, though, I believe that I had multiple functions for use depending upon whether the cursor was immediately after the word (base case), had text on both sides, or had white space to the left. hawk -- Richard E.

status for cascading depths problem?
I had thought that there was a fix for the cascading depth problem committed a couple of weeks ago, but an update from today didn't get it. I need to print out a couple of dozen documents from two years ago until the present. Is my best bet to build another lyx of appropriate vintage?

Recall the example in class where we each rolled three dice, and calculated

Using a spreadsheet or Minitab, draw
\begin_inset Formula \( 100 \)
\end_inset
samples of
\begin_inset Formula \( 49 \)
\end_inset
observations each.
Calculate the mean for each of your samples.
In a spreadsheet, a random number from
\begin_inset Formula \( 1 \)
\end_inset
to
\begin_inset Formula \( n \)
\end_inset
can be created by the equation
\begin_inset Formula \( =int\left( n*rand()\right) +1 \)
\end_inset
(In current versions of excel, you may use
\begin_inset Formula \( rand\_between(1,n) \)
\end_inset
to obtain an integer from
\begin_inset Formula \( 1 \)
\end_inset
to
\begin_inset Formula \( n \)
\end_inset
if you have appropriate modules installed).
The
\begin_inset Formula \( rand() \)
\end_inset
returns a variable between
\begin_inset Formula \( 0 \)
\end_inset
and
\begin_inset Formula \( 1 \)
\end_inset
, the
\begin_inset Formula \( n \)
\end_inset
scales it, the
\begin_inset Formula \( int \)
\end_inset
turns it into the next lowest integer, and the
\begin_inset Formula \( +1 \)
\end_inset
shifts it so the minimum value is
\begin_inset Formula \( 1 \)
\end_inset

The Statistical Methodology
\layout Standard
Answering a question in a particular manner can be treated as a Bernoulli
variable, having a success (or value of 1) when answered that way, and
a failure (or value of 0) when not answered that way.
\begin_inset Formula $ p_{i}$
\end_inset
is the underlying parameter indicating the proportion of the population
that will answer in that manner, also called the frequency.
It is customary to define
\begin_inset Formula \begin{equation}
q_{i}=1-p_{i}\end{equation}
\end_inset
The fraction of respondents answering in this matter is then a sample mean,
and can be calculated as
\layout Standard
\begin_inset Formula \[
\hat{p}_{i}=\frac{x_{i}}{n}\]
\end_inset
For
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset
large
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset
samples, the Central Limit Theorem guarantees that this variable will be
asymptotically normal
\begin_inset Marginal

\layout Standard

\end_inset
distributed, and using the well-known variance of the Bernoulli trial,
\begin_inset Formula \begin{equation}
\hat{p}_{i}~N\left(p,\frac{pq}{n}\right)\end{equation}
\end_inset
where
\begin_inset Formula $ n$
\end_inset
is the number of responses.
\layout Standard
Generally, a large sample is taken to be thirty or more.
In the particular case of frequencies, the additional requirements are
generally made that
\begin_inset Formula \begin{equation}
np\geq 5\end{equation}
\end_inset
and
\begin_inset Formula \begin{equation}
nq\geq 5\end{equation}
\end_inset
when this is not the case, the distribution is not sufficiently normal.
\begin_inset Marginal

\end_inset
\layout Standard
For the present data, the null hypothesis for any given survey question
will be that the American response and the Guatemalan are identical.
Under this hypothesis,
\begin_inset Formula $ \hat{p}_{i,a}$
\end_inset
and
\begin_inset Formula $ \hat{p}_{i,g}$
\end_inset
are separate observations of the same underlying parameter,
\begin_inset Formula $ p_{i}$
\end_inset
.
That is, if the hypothesis is true,
\begin_inset Formula $ p_{i}$
\end_inset
is the true frequency for both American and Guatamalen firms, while
\begin_inset Formula $ \hat{p}_{i,a}$
\end_inset
and
\begin_inset Formula $ \hat{p}_{i,g}$
\end_inset
are two separate variables drawn from the distribution.
Linear combinations of normal variables are distributed normally themsleves;
in the case of straightforward addition and subtraction the combined variance
is the sum of the variances, while the combined mean is the sum or difference
of the means.
\begin_inset Marginal
collapsed false
\layout Standard
jack--cite?
\end_inset
In this case, the means are the same under the hypothesis, their difference
is hypothesized as mean zero, and is distributed
\begin_inset Formula \begin{equation}
\hat{p}_{i,a}-\hat{p}_{i,g}~N\left(0,\sigma_{ p_{i,a}}^{2}+\sigma_{
p_{i,g}}^{2}\right)\end{equation}
\end_inset
with the individual variances being of the form
\begin_inset Formula \begin{equation}
\sigma_{\hat{p}_{i,j}}^{2}=\frac{pq}{n_{i,j}}\end{equation}
\end_inset
which combine as
\begin_inset Formula \begin{equation}
\sigma_{\hat{p}_{i,a}-\hat{p}_{i,g}}^{2}=\frac{pq}{n_{i,a}}+\frac{pq}{n_{i,g}}=pq\left(\frac{1}{n_{i,a}}+\frac{1}{n_{i,g}}\right)\end{equation}
\end_inset
and therefore the quantity
\begin_inset Formula \begin{equation}
z_{p_{i}}\equiv\frac{\hat{p}_{i,a}-\hat{p}_{i,g}}{\sqrt{pq}\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{i,a}}+\frac{1}{n_{j,b\label{eq:zdef-init}\end{equation}
\end_inset
has a standard normal distribution.
\layout Standard
Equation
\begin_inset LatexCommand \prettyref{eq:zdef-init}
\end_inset
still requires a calculation of
\begin_inset Formula $ p$
\end_inset
, which in turn yields a usable
\begin_inset Formula $ q$
\end_inset
.
Returning to the hypothesis that both groups are the same, the best estimate
of the true frequency will come from the underlying frequency
\begin_inset Formula $ p_{i}$
\end_inset
can be best estimated by using the degrees of freedom for each observation
to form a weighted average,
\begin_inset Marginal

latex2html problems with equations
I'm coauthoring a paper that will ultimately be submitted in word. There's no way that I'm going to use equation editor until the final draft, though :) I'm trying to send the doc to html and use pngs for the equation for the momennt. If lyx created these images during export, I have no idea where it stuffed them (and neither does the document it created. I don't see the creation messages in the debug window. Exporting to latex, and then using latex2html by hand, the right-hand side of multiline equations gets a greay background. hawk -- Richard E. Hawkins, Asst.

just killed the spellchecker
This is fresh cvs from today. I created a new document, and ran the
spellchecker on one word. Still not sure, I put in a misspelling, and
ran again. I'm pretty sure I moved the cursor back to the beginning,
and that it took (I might have just assumed).
It didn't mark either word wrong, so I tried again, and it didn't
respond at all.

Yes, but this still doesn't get to the "no, unless permitted" behavior--I *hate* being popped at; it's one of my reasons for text browsers. It's trivial to configure junkbuster to only allow pre-approved cookies, but I'm still having trobule with the occasional site I need that blows up when using a proxy. hawk

THe search command can be used from the keyboard. There should be a keybinding that will cause it to use the result found. It would appear that Alt-I is meant to do so, but it doesn't.

The insert citation dialog has a similar problem to the export-custom dialog. Make a new citation, select something from the list, and close. The inset now has nothing (it really seems to me that the selected cite should somehow default over there; there's far too much mousing here).
