Yes. Greets, Alejandro

Use this type of setting for TEXINPUTS:
TEXINPUTS=.:/home/kayvan/src/tex/sty:!!/usr/share/texmf/{tex,pdftex}/{generic,}//
This should work for your needs.

using latex classes /cv
I downloaded cv-1.3, which is the extension to lyx/latex containing cls and layout files. The README says "cv.cls...Put that in a place where LaTeX can find it." Where, exactly, I should put it? I wouldn't like to use root's permissions just for trying it out. I tried setting TEXINPUTS environment variable, but then LaTeX found nothing (apparently it override all default paths). I'm using teTeX 1.0.6 installed in /usr/tetex.

I've actually did some work on this, but I stopped as I learned that Alejandro Sierra (the author of the math editor) has been working on a totally new mathed, so I will probably start working again after the new mathed is merged to the current code (unless the new mathed already supports all AMS symbols :) [Note to Alejandro: is the new mathed is feature complete (i.e. is it ready to replace the old mathed?] > - The functionality ABOVE/BELOW which allows, for > example, to write the > arrow of an equation in chemistry (arrow with text above). You can use arrays for composing two symbol vertically. However, for arrows it is better to use the amsmath commands \xleftarrow and \xrightarrow. Use can use these command in the math editor, but you don't get visual representation for these commands. Again, the addition of better support for these (and other amsmath) commands should be done after the merge with the new mathed.
