Implementing the suggestion above implies a change of behaviour. LyX

No, because the draft options are added. But you can't get the original LyX
settings in many other cases either, so this is no problem IMHO.
Example: LyX file includes x.png - TeX file contains \includegraphics{x},
and we have both x.png and x.eps. tex2lyx can't determine the original
file, it could only do some guesswork if both x.png and x.eps exist, x.png
is probably the origiunal file. But I don't want it to do that by default,
because this guess could be wrong and this might lead to data loss if the
newly created LyX file is exported to TeX again.

Included graphics are one of the few cases where the TeX file does not carry
enough information to reconstruct the LyX file (note insets are another, we
have a bug report for this).

 We are playing too many nice tricks.

The problem is that you need to specify 'draft', the file type and the 
bounding box if the file does not exist, otherwise latex will fail. This 
means that this document can't be used anyway to run latex if the file is 
added subsequently. I think that the not found message is adequate in 
this case, otherwise somebody looking at the document will not know why 
the special options are there.
The fact that tex2lyx outputs a strange warning is not that important 
IMHO. If somebody does not understand it, he will look at the file and 
understand it then.

An alternative that is also sensible IMHO is to create the normal output 
and let latex export fail if the file is missing. Normally this means 
that something is wrong, and if somebody includes a graphic without 
actually having the file on purpose he could as well put this inside a

tex2lyx for windows update

2005-02-15 Thread Angus Leeming
As ever, this is pre-release software. Use at your own risk.

Get it here (760kB):
http://www.devel.lyx.org/~leeming/tex2lyx_win32_15Feb05.zip

It will unzip to a directory LyX containing
LyX/
  bin/
reLyX
tex2lyx.exe
  Resources/
lyx/
  chkconfig.ltx
  configure
  credits
  lyxrc.defaults
  packages.lst
  textclass.lst
  layouts/
  lyx2lyx/
lyx2lyx
  reLyX/
man/
  man1/
reLyX.1

I've installed this as J:/Programs/LyX.

This version allows us to have J:/Programs/LyX/bin in the PATH enabling
tex2lyx to be executed as expected tex2lyx foo.tex  foo_14x.lyx

More exitingly, the lyx - tex - lyx round trip is now much improved.
Kudos to Georg Baum and to José Matos.
The DVI files before and after conversion are now nearly identical:

$ lyx-13x --export latex UserGuide_13x.lyx
$ tex2lyx UserGuide_13x.tex  UserGuide_14x.lyx
$ python J:/Programs/LyX/Resources/lyx/lyx2lyx/lyx2lyx \
--to 221 --output UserGuide_13x_2.lyx
$ lyx-13x --export dvi UserGuide_13x.lyx
$ lyx-13x --export dvi UserGuide_13x_2.lyx
$ ls -l *.dvi

-rw-rw-r--  1 angus angus 496940 Feb 15 22:33 UserGuide_13x_2.dvi

Perhaps it's time to add a tex2lyx page to the wiki and to add these (linux
also) packages to it?

Repeating the loop (to get UserGuide_13x_3.dvi) I see these warnings:

causing us problems it would appear.

tex2lyx for windows update

2005-02-15 Thread Angus Leeming
As ever, this is pre-release software. Use at your own risk.

Get it here (760kB):
http://www.devel.lyx.org/~leeming/tex2lyx_win32_15Feb05.zip

It will unzip to a directory LyX containing
LyX/
  bin/
reLyX
tex2lyx.exe
  Resources/
lyx/
  chkconfig.ltx
  configure
  credits
  lyxrc.defaults
  packages.lst
  textclass.lst
  layouts/
  lyx2lyx/
lyx2lyx
  reLyX/
man/
  man1/
reLyX.1

I've installed this as J:/Programs/LyX.

This version allows us to have J:/Programs/LyX/bin in the PATH enabling
tex2lyx to be executed as expected "tex2lyx foo.tex > foo_14x.lyx"

More exitingly, the lyx -> tex -> lyx round trip is now much improved.
Kudos to Georg Baum and to José Matos.
The DVI files before and after conversion are now nearly identical:

$ lyx-13x --export latex UserGuide_13x.lyx
$ tex2lyx UserGuide_13x.tex > UserGuide_14x.lyx
$ python J:/Programs/LyX/Resources/lyx/lyx2lyx/lyx2lyx \
--to 221 --output UserGuide_13x_2.lyx
$ lyx-13x --export dvi UserGuide_13x.lyx
$ lyx-13x --export dvi UserGuide_13x_2.lyx
$ ls -l *.dvi
-rw-rw-r--  1 angus angus 496736 Feb 15 22:33 UserGuide_13x.dvi
-rw-rw-r--  1 angus angus 496940 Feb 15 22:33 UserGuide_13x_2.dvi

Perhaps it's time to add a tex2lyx page to the wiki and to add these (linux
also) packages to it?
