eqnarray is OK for one column layout, but two column layout required
for papers often requires split or multline to get more flexibility.

How does one use labels?

2001-08-28 Thread Steve Litt

I'd like to use labels for my Warning and Sidebar environments, if that's 
possible. With Warning the text of it will always be "Warning". With Sidebars 
it will be whatever is appropriate. I'd like to have the labels print above 
the environment text, centered.

Is this something appropriate for labels, or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Thanks

Steve

No, this will not work (the text will be added outside the table).

To do what you want, you need to open the text file in a text editor,
mark the text, and then goto lyx, insert an empty table,
and select "paste from external selection->as lines" from the menu.

But polynom is intended for polynom division, not integer division.
For integer division use longdiv.sty (attached).

Writing \longdiv{10}{5} in latex mode will generate the following output:

  __2
5|10
  10

   0
 __2_
If you just want to generate just 5 | 10, then use simplediv.sty

and write \simplediv{10}{5}{2}

For ignoring the newlines and indentation spaces.

It is used to denote the argument of the macro.

For example,
   \newcommand{\foo}[1]{The argument is #1}
defines a command \foo with one arguemnt.
\foo{123} will generate 'The argument is 123' in the output.

But this requires using ERT.
Lyx supports the eqnarray environment, so it should be used for breaking

  For comments, think about # for shell scripts. Also there are other rules
that relate how TeX deals with changing lines that are "softned" by the use
of the comment.

  #1 IIRC is the first argument of the command.

  On topic: although I know that docbook is not the solution for this case
that is the general idea from docbook. And there are defined all thoses
styles that you cite with the single exception of Story.

  Also, from the developpers point of view, that is where we want LyX to go
(to allow a better support for logical styles, as opposed to physical styles).
And this applied to LaTeX, of course...

Well, the latexonly and htmlonly environments allow
to deal pretty well with what's specific to paper layout
and to electronic publishing. You may control everything
from the latex source by \inputting the same html mask
in every original document.

Moreover, if you have a look at the latex2html Perl variables
and subroutines, you may easily improve also the navigation facilities
(if you want to split up your document, which is a good idea
for web publishing) to include header and footer.
The $ADDRESS variable allows also to set a footer in each page.
I guess the the more recent versions have supplementary stuff
available (I use 99 here).

To customize, I copy the .latex2html-init in the working dir
and tune everything from there, doing some  hoem made perl postprocessing
when needed (I happened to find out in the doc that the function 
DID exist :-).

LyX to HTML via latex2html?

2001-08-28 Thread Paul Lussier


Hi all,

For quite some time now, my colleague and I have been using LyX to 
write our internal documentation.  However, we now need to place this 
documentation on the internal website.  We've tried latex2html, and 
it works great as far as I can tell.  The problem is it's really ugly.

For our internal web pages, we have look 'n' feel that we want to 
perpetuate throughout all our pages, documentation included. Most of
our other pages are hand-crafted, so we just manually include all the 
header information that provides the look we want.

Is there any way to do this with LyX/latex2html?  Is there a way to 
have latex2html use cascading style sheets, etc.?  Currently our 
websites all have a table at the top with certain text centered, and 
some images on both the left and right.  Obviously we don't want this 
to carry over to the printed versions, so we need some way of having 
latex2html include either a css or some other chunk of html code at 
the top of each generated page.

Anyone doing this type of thing? Or should I start looking at SGML?

Thanks a bunch,

The lettre.sty is OK for this at it was created in Genève,
(the Send to info is located at 5cm from top
and 11.5cm from left of page), but I guess that you can't
force english or german language.

Maybe the positioning part of the code can be reused ?

Hi all!!

My question is simple:

How can I export a Lyx file into a LaTeX file from console (command
line)?

Thanks.

German LyX-Version

2001-08-28 Thread Thomas Dick

Hi all,

i'm new to lyx and that's my problem:

I'm using a german version of lyx 1.1.2. When i insert a float, the table- and
the figure-floats will be named correctly (Tabelle xxx, Abbildung xxx), but the
algorithm-floats get the english name (Algorithm xxx).

May I change this behaviour manually, so that the algorithm-floats (Algorithmus
xxx) and the "list of algorithms" ("Verzeichnis der Algorithmen") will be named
with their german terms?

Thank You,
Thomas




Letter: Swiss layout?

2001-08-28 Thread joerg . hau

Dear All,

Sorry if this is a FAQ, but ... using the "dinbrief" or "g-brief" 
layout to write a letter, how can I change the indenting of the 
"send to" address? 

The reason is that Swiss envelopes (those with a transparent address 
window) need the address to be located at ca. 12 cm from the left 
edge of the paper, NOT left-aligned as in most other countries ...

(Usually we move the location/date to the left side of the paper, 
roughly at the same height as the address, but this is yet another 
question ;-)

Cheers & merci,

-- Joerg

compile on sgi

2001-08-28 Thread Colleen E. Melzer

Hello,

I am trying to compile lyx-1.1.6fix3 on IRIX 6.5.10.  I am using the
gcc flags "-mabi=n32 -mips3".  I am getting the following error from
ld32:

ld32: ERROR   33 : Unresolved text symbol "_GLOBAL_$I$_un_link__9streambuf" -- 1
st referenced by /var/tmp/ccAbcfhW.o.

I am guessing I need to include another library, but I don't know which
one.

Thank you in advance for your help.
Colleen Melzer
