Yes! Finally! I had asked a very similar question one or two days ago. Solution: /etc/lyxrc or ~/.lyx/lyxrc must contain: \view_dvi_command "gnome-gv $( basename $$FName .dvi ).pdf" \pdf_mode true or use 'gv', 'acroread' or 'xpdf' instead of 'gnome-gv'. None of them is ideal. The gv's can watch the file so that you can use LyX's "update dvi", but don't have continous scrolling. The pdf's can scroll documents continously, but they can't watch a pdf file. If you know better, please tell me so!

lyx unrelated: wp for console
Auctex with emacs would work on a console or serial terminal, although Auctex is much better with X-windows where you can use xdvi and/or ghostview previewers, and better still with Xemacs. I wrote several books with Auctex and emacs before switching to LyX. -- Ronald Florence http://members.home.net/18james
lyx unrelated: wp for console
I'm setting a friend up on Linux... he really needs to steer clear of X with this system he's got. He's command line inclined anyway, so I thought I'd ask whether any of you know of a good wp program to run in the console. At minimum, it would need to handle footnotes. The reason I don't just put him on with TeX is he's not really excited about having to learn new stuff at present. He gets frustrated and bored with complex stuff, he just wants to write papers in a microsoft-free environment. Any suggestions?
endnotes
I'm using endnotes.sty with a book-length manuscript, written with each chapter a file, included into a master.lyx file. In the lyx prologue of the master file I have \let\footnote=\endnote and by including something like \newpage \begingroup \parindent 0pt \parskip 2ex \def\enotesize{\normalsize} \theendnotes \endgroup in TeX mode at the end of the manuscript, I can get a formatted list of endnotes. I would prefer to see the endnotes formatted with a heading for each chapter and the numbering restarted for each chapter. Has anyone done this, or know how I can do it? Thanks, -- Ronald Florence http://members.home.net/18james

Line spacing uses a multiplier so that is easy to get smaler than he standard line spacing. Paragraph spacing is harder and currently I think you have to put some latex magic in your preamble (but that will work globally and not for a singele paragraph) You can also add some latex code right after your paragrap and mark it as tex. \vspace{-3cm} might work Lgb | | z powa¿aniem | Marek Wo³oszyk | [EMAIL PROTECTED] | +48-602-346070
Available document classes
Hi, many people in my Linux User Group ask me about other document classes than those present in 1.1.5fix2 version of LyX. Is there a list (or, can we set up one now) of all document class available? I'm looking through the user-list mail archive to get some links. Thanks to everybody, Emanuele
Viewing PDF file
Hello everybody, I am new to this list and have already scanned throug the archives, but have not found a satisfactory answer yet. My Problem: I have managed to setup LyX, so that it produces nice clear PDF output via PDFLaTeX. The only left Problem is, that I cannot find a possibility to view the result directly. The PDF File resides in a /tmp/lyx_tmp... directory still. The Menu command View DVI still assumes a file with a DVI ending (I can change the viewer to a PDF one, though) Is there some command in LyX, which I can assign a button to, that shows me my file? Any ideas? Another way which is working is 'export lyx' followed by an explicit pdlatex run. But that's still time consuming... Cheers, André -- +-+ | Dipl. - Inform.
