Re: LyX 1.1.6. does not launch on OSF

2001-01-19 Thread Alain Castera


Hi
I got a similar behavior on my PPC .

The problem was not with the ~/.lyx directory, but with the
/usr/local/share/lyx directory. I configured LyX 1.1.6 with the
--with-lyxname=STRING, and it creates a "STRING" directory in
/usr/local/share, but seemed to use the "old" /usr/local/share/lyx dir
when launched. Note that the application name was still lyx and not
STRING.

May be I missed the point ( and lost my "old" LyX binary). Anyway,
renaming my old /usr/local/share/lyx directory solved the problem. 

Hope this could help you.

Alain
P.S. suggestion : Is it possible to suggest, in the INSTALL file, a
COMPLETE procedure to install concurent versions of LyX (e.g. to test a
new release before switching). This could help stupid users (like me) :-)

An AMD K6 is a 'i586'  as far as I know.
Anyway, doing a "rpm --rebuild --target i568 (or i686) lyx-1.1.6.src.rpm"
gives a:  "Cannot open i586, file not found"

With "rpm -bb lyx-1.1.6.spec" compilation succeded.


Now the problem.

I've installed the freshly build lyx-1.1.6.rpm (together with tetex-lyx). 
When I try to run LyX, the program complains following:
  "You are either running LyX with wrong version of a dynamic XForms library
  or you have build LyX with conflicting header and library (different
  versions of XForms."

I have xforms-0.89. Isn't that a right one? Do I have to install 0.88-9 and 
recompile lyx?

dead keys in 1.1.6

2001-01-19 Thread Jan Sykora

Hello all.

I have recently experienced some problems with lyx-1.1.6 handling of
dead keys when using a national (czech.kmap) keybord lyx layout. When
pressing dead key acute there appears only a mark for footnote and for
dead caron there appears a space. This behoviour appears on both RedHat
linux 6.2/7.0(XFree4) i386. I have tried binary distribution (rpm) and
also the one compiled from the sources - all with the same result. I
should also note that all previous versiton up to 1.1.5fix2 work
flawlessly.

Any ideas what went wrong?

My poor mind would melt trying to get it to work, I suspect. At the
moment, I run lyx at work in a vmware virtural machine, running on top of
NT 4.0. I could run the NT version of lyx, but then I'd lose all my nice
unix support utilities. 

I think I'm the only personin the world at the moment who uses linux for
their "productivity" applications, and NT for their numerical calc :)

 Indeed. Sometime I fear my ignorance is astounding.

Thanks for the help (and lyx BTW, 1.1.6 looks very good!)

So this means that you have to continue working with your 1.1.5 for relating files
and so on?. Maybe a conversion to .html or .txt or whatever is much more
helpful ?
Otherwise I am a little bit astonished that the compatiblity on LaTeX- level
fails, as far as I remember there was an incompatibility relating to the step
1.1.4fix3 to 1.1.5 (concerning LaTeX typesetting!!)

How to add prefix in float-numbering ?

2001-01-19 Thread R. Lahaye


Hi,

I want to change float numbering:

from "Table 1" into "Table S1" etc.
from "Figure 1" into "Figure S1" etc.

So all numbers must get a certain prefix ("S" in this example).

Is it easy to define this prefix somewhere in the document?

Thanks,

Rob.

Thanks for providing the temp fix. Without it I'd have to fallback to
1.1.5, however, even with the fix I am encountering serious problems
(core dump) whenever I include a .lyx file which contains a Bibliography
section and then do a View->DVI or any other "View" selection. If I just
load that file as a separate .lyx file I can edit and view this without
problems.

Any 'temp fixes' for that too?

according to Italian typographical requirements, I would like to obtain:

(1) authors in small caps
(2) in quotations after the 1st, oxford uses a particular short-title

Are you sure you removed your former ~/.lyx directory?? Assuming your
home directory is /Perfo/peer, the following line seems wrong:

Found lyxrc.defaults in /Perfo/peer/.lyx/lyxrc.defaults 
Reading '/Perfo/peer/.lyx/lyxrc.defaults'... 
<--- this is the one just generated by make install 

Note that 'make install' does not generate anything in .lyx/.

I am surprised that it eventually crashes, anyway.

PS: I do use 1.1.6 on Tru64 unix 4.0f (== Digital Unix == OSF/1).

renaming to whatever you like (just to be sure the new lyx will not use
it).

But the directory was created OK on my machine !!! Note that it was
created by "make install". If you tried to test your local copy before
installation, I don't know what lyx is supposed to do in this case.

This is a limitation of LyX (we have plans to remove it, of course).
Currently, you need to put a "Comment" paragraph between any two consecutive
Definition paragraphs.

No, this will generate too much space between the two definition paragraphs.
But you can put {} in latex mode (using standard paragraph), or as I mentioned
in another message, you can put a comment paragraph.

Piece of code in my « makelyx » command to install and test a new version
while protecting the current one (1.1.5):
cp /usr/local/bin/lyx /usr/local/bin/lyx-1.1.5
cp /usr/local/bin/reLyX /usr/local/bin/reLyX-1.1.5
gmake install
cp /usr/local/bin/lyx /usr/local/bin/lyx-1.1.6
strip /usr/local/bin/lyx-1.1.6
cp /usr/local/bin/reLyX /usr/local/bin/reLyX-1.1.6
cp /usr/local/bin/lyx-1.1.5 /usr/local/bin/lyx
cp /usr/local/bin/reLyX-1.1.5 /usr/local/bin/reLyX

Of course, lyx executable is 1.1.6 for a few seconds...

The sharable part is in /usr/local/share/1.1.6 all right.

Section Numbering and Face.

2001-01-19 Thread Rem

I am writing my thesis in LyX and I have to stick to the thesis guidelines of 
Graduate School so here is what I need to do:

Sections should not be bold. I change the face from Layout > Font, but the 
number, i.e. 0.1 remains there and it is in bold. Moreover, I need to have 
the section title in the center (subsections must be left justified). 

Another question is how do I set the page margins? I have tried but it does 
not let me set them. May be I need to try milimeters?

Thanks,

Remzi

The thread is titled "fax support, dead keys and i18n (1.1.6)". If I
understood things correctly, you can't get i18n menus working immediately
after the compilation, and  you have to do 'make install' first, placing
the .mo files in the share/locale/ directories.

I can not change the margins no matter what... By the way, I am using report
style...

You need a valid unit with the integer. Eg, "1 cm", "2 em", "3 mm" etc.

I have tried to put a Bibliography section, and it is true that it crashes
systematically! I don't see any latex command that could prevent from this !

``rpm --rebuild lyx-1.1.6.src.rpm --target i586'' would also work.

You could try that. This is definitely a bad version of xforms.

Bibliography question

2001-01-19 Thread Mohammad Reza Danesh

I've recently upgraded my Lyx to 1.1.6 and I have the following problem with
inserting bibliography citations.

Let's say I have a master document with several chapters as sub-files inserted
to it. I put the BibTex generated references in the master document. Now in
sub-files, when I want to add a citation, I can't since the BibTex references
are inserted in the master doc and aren't viewable by sub-files (all of the
files are open).

In previous versions, I had the option to type in the index of the citation
(assuming that I know it) in sub-files. LaTex would find it and create the
correct citation reference. In "Insert > Citation Reference" of 1.1.6, I can't
type anything in (it should be taken from the existing list). My question is:
should I use Tex to insert citations or there is another way to do this?

Thanks,
M




Thanks for LyX

2001-01-19 Thread Carlos A. M. dos Santos


Dear sirs

Doped by litres of cofee, and after three weeks working like a horse, I
finally submited my master thesys today. Without LyX, this probably could
not happen, or perhaps I were submited to the humiliation of using a
software that treats me as an idiot: MS-Word.

There are no words to explain my gratitude to each one of the developers
of this wonderful tool that LyX is, and that I heve been using with
pleasure almost daily for the last three years.

 All I can say is THANKS, THANKS, THANKS, THANKS, THANKS, THANKS, THANKS,
THANKS, THANKS, THANKS, THANKS!

Now going to bed.

mod

Hi,

How do I get to have 'mod' in the math panel? There is bmod, which I am not 
sure what it stands for and I need to use 'mod(5)' like things in my 
documents...

Thanks

Remzi



bmod does the job!

Ok, sorry...
'bmod' does seem as 'mod' in the dvi file... I guess this was drawback of now 
knowing TeX...
Sorry for the inconvenience.

I think that it is tex2html. Lyx dispays the msg :
this document was generated using the latex2html 
The address that J.M. gave me mention a file .Xdefaults in which 
we must add Netscape*documentFonts.chareset*adobe-fontspecific:iso-8859-1
but I don't have a file named .Xdefaults.
Perhaps my version of netscape is too old.
Thanks to you all for your help.
Gerard.

Out of subject:
Concerning the compilation of lyx-1.1.6 I've got the msg displayed:
...
make[3] enterring directory '/usr/local/lyx-1.1.6/src'
g++ -DHA_CONFIG_H . /boost . -C lyxfunc
VM :do_tryto_free_pages failed for kwapd

then the compilation failed.
I restarted "make" and the same msg displayed again but 
the compilation was accomplished successfully and lyx works
fine.
