I don't know even the first bit of how the Lyx code Thierry is organized, but this leads me to a reflexion: why is there Thierry no embedded interpreter (or may I have missed it?) in Lyx?

Thierry Emacs is just build around this concept, which makes it so Thierry powerful! (I agree that it somehow interfaces with humans in Thierry a strange fashion, though) Just to say it... There is no interpreter because it is not done yet. I think we will include a small scheme implementation like SIOD in LyX 1.2. JMarc Does this mean that I would be able to group keystrokes into one command and execute them with some hotkey that I have assigned?

You could also bind a complex command with loops, test and whatever to a single key.

What I'd like to have is (cut; paste). text, just by dragging the text around with middle mouse button pressed. Another way of putting it is a 'move' command. Besides being handy it would eliminate the possibility of doing the cut, having some minor accident happen and the buffer getting filled with something else so you can no longer paste. Even better would be a general editor for customizing sequences of commands. Then I could make this thing myself. I think you have done a GREAT job in letting the user define those layouts; and you could do the same with - keyboard clicks - arbitrary commands - complex Latex commands. This would be extremely handy. Bruce begin: vcard fn: Uwe Assmann n: Assmann;Uwe email;internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] x-mozilla-cpt: ;0 x-mozilla-html: FALSE version:2.1 end:vcard

It is even possible to paste it anywhere you want by middle-clicking (even after the block disappeared if you just cut it!). So you can just do the same thing as Drag'n'drop move in a matter of clicks (which is, in my opinion, easier than a held-left-mouse selection.) A *very* definitely, AOL-like YES, MEE TOO for that. I often start doing that in LyX until I recognize I'm not in emacs... Peter A standard set of editing tools from the keyboard would be very helpful. I don't care if its emacs or vi or old dos wordstar like commands.

For me, this saves a lot of cut/paste work. Any plans to support it? Not the same as the above but related, At least for fvwm the standard has been double click highlights (first button) a word, triple click highlights a line and the second button pastes a selection,and other variations on the buttons exist also. This seems to be missing from Lyx (although it exists from another application to lyx) There also it seems there are no standard keyboard editing features (Cut a line,word and copy elsewhere,delete a word,line, keyboard macros etc) Bruce begin: vcard fn: Uwe Assmann n: Assmann;Uwe email;internet: [EMAIL PROTECTED] x-mozilla-cpt: ;0 x-mozilla-html: FALSE version:2.1 end:vcard
