For me, this saves a lot of cut/paste work. Any plans to support it? I don't know. But it ist always possible to mark text with the left mouse (or shift-cursor) and then insert it at some other point by klicking the middle mouse at that location (without left-clicking there before!). Peter Just to note an idea for that sort of stuff: a really good feature of Emacs is the ability to mark a beginning of a block by left-clicking, mark the end by right-clicking, and then if right-clicking again it cuts the block. 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.) -- Thierry Michalolwski Edipresse Publications http://antares.cpe.fr/ ~tm/ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- ~~ Peter "Pit" Suetterlin http://www.uni-sw.gwdg.de/~pit Universitaets-Sternwarte Goettingen Tel.: +49 551 39-5048 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- * -- * ...-- * -- * ...-- * -- * ...-- * -- * ...-- * -- * ...-- * -- Come and see the stars! http://www.kis.uni-freiburg.de/~ps/SFB Sternfreunde Breisgau e.V.

Re: Multiple Frames

What's the relationship of Lyx with Gnome and how choose between KDE and Gnome if they provide the same functionality but you also want Lyx? Well, I should try to answer to that. Actually, I think -should be corrected by someone if I'm wrong, I'm currently working withe the 0.12 version of Lyx - that there is no relashionship between Lyx and Gnome, neither KDE. KLyx is basically an effort to let Lyx conform to a "standard" interface which is defined by KDE. Maybe the developers added some functionalities too, but that was not the main purpose of Klyx.In my opinion. Gnome and KDE do not provide the same functionality. They resemble in the way they both try to be a user-friendly interface to Linux/Unix, but they are ways different. I think Gnome is more powerful and configurable, too, but that is another question... :-) So, if you just want Lyx, you can have it.And you don't ever need Gnome nor KDE! (I don't have any on my Sun station at work, and still I'm using Lyx.But I don't use Klyx, which needs KDE, or at least some of its components, to work.) For the multi-frame question, I thought there was a menu that allowed to switch between a bunch of opened documents on the right of the main menu of Lyx...Of course, you still work with only one frame, but at least you don't need to close and reopen every document every time you switch back and forth! I'm looking forward to the final release of 1.0 :) I have to download the latest version this weekend before school starts again. Are you going to tell me the new version is out Monday? Maybe the developers will flame me for that, but I'm awaiting the "imminent" 1.0 version for at least two months now...Still "imminent" though...Much more than two month ago I suppose! ;-D (Well, just kidding, guys!) Whew, I kept it down to 2 questions :) You're welcome!

After stating in the submission form "LaTeX encouraged", I just receive

We just spoke to Wiley, the publisher, and found out that they are

problems converting LaTex files and would like the manuscript in
Microsoft
Word 6.0 or other microcomputer word processor.
The manuscript, of course, was LaTeX output generated by LyX. Well, can

offer them ASCII output, which would fit very well to "WordStar" running
on
"Apple ][" under CP/M?

Maybe you'd better sending them the file in a MSWord6.0 for Mac format,
given they use a MS-Word6.0 for Windows : then they only have to complain
at Microsoft's about the incompatibility (that's not _your_ fault, after
all!)

CV Layout
Hello, I'm new to Lyx and just installed the latest stable version; I need a layout for curriculum vitae ... just because the article, book, letter and report ones that are bundled with this release do not correspond to what I need! If anybody knows where I can find it?
