I added it, because JPEG was there in Grace. That should go then if not useful in LyX. Are the other Grace conversions still convenient? If so, then we don't need another patch for lib/configure.m4, do we? Simply apply my latest patch and remove the two lines that contain agr_to_jpg (lines 578 and 411). Regards, Rob. PS: the patch also contains the conversion from XPM to EPS, which is really necessary; otherwise xpm graphics cannot be viewed or printed!

Graphics: Viewing XPM and stray-EPS files ?!?!
Hi, LyX does not seem to ship with an XPM to EPS converter by default. For example load lyx-devel/images/deco.xpm and try to view it with Postscript: Error, no conversion available!?!?! So, I've added in Preferences/Conversions an XPM to EPS converter: From XPM to EPS convert XPM:$$i EPS:$$o That works, but shouldn't that be added automagically by LyX itself? - XPM to EPS converter seems to create another problem. Do following: start LyX File-New Insert-Graphics Click [Browse] and select lyx-devel/images/deco.xpm Click [OK] View-Postscript And there it is: lyx-devel/images/deco.eps !! Shouldn't be there, I suppose. What if this deco.eps was a totally different, already existing file? I would lose that!!! This should to be solved before 1.2.0 goes out. Cheers, Rob.
