inserting c/c++ program code into latex/lyx documents
hi all, i have been trying to complete my thesis document using lyx. i need to insert c/c++ code into my documents. i need some examples as to how this can be accomplished. the c program is stored in a file and i would like to include a major part from the file into a lyx/latex document. i tried using the "insert code" option from within lyx but it does not format my code properly. any help is greatly appreciated, thanx a lot, parminder gupta

tanja salesch wrote: i would be satisfied if i could label pages, so that i could refer to a page number.. . All pages are labeled internally. So you can refer to any of them. To reference a page, set a label to the part of text that should be referenced. Now insert a reference. In the reference dialog, you can choose the format, e.g "page" if you only want the page number. or is there possibility to "rename" index Here a german explanation, how to do this: (taken from the document LyXMathbefehle, which can be downloaded from http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/LyX/LyXMathebefehle ) - Damit der Index den Namen "Stichwortverzeichnis" erhält, wurde im LaTeX-Vorspann \usepackage[ngerman]{babel} \addto\captionsngerman {\renewcommand{\indexname} {Stichwortverzeichnis}} eingefügt. Das Paket babel sorgt dafür, dass die Beschriftungen in der ausgewählten Sprache erscheinen. Ehe man Beschriftungen ändern kann, muss es geladen werden. Außerdem wird babel von LyX automatisch nach dem LaTeX-Vorspann geladen. Das ruft aber keine Probleme hervor, solange im LaTeX-Vorspann die Dokumentsprache verwendet wurde. Möchte man andere Beschriftungen ändern, ersetzt man \indexname durch \name. Eine Auflistung der möglichen Namen findet man unter http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=fixnam Möchte man Beschriftungen für andere Sprachen ändern, ersetzt man ngerman durch die Dokumentsprache und \captionsgerman durch \captions. - and put it in your "table of contents.."? If you use a koma-script class, use the option "idxtotoc" (insert this option in the menu Layout -> Document -> Format -> Options) Otherwise use the LaTeX-package "tocbibind" or the command \addcontentsline in the preamble of your document. E.g. write \addcontentsline{toc}{section}{\protect\numberline{}Indexname} regards Uwe
a problem with lyx
dear mailing-list users, i have a big problem with lyx and i hope that there is an easy solution for it. as you know one can create an "index" in lyx. is there a possibility to create an "symbolverzeichnis" or an "namesverzeichnis", so that they are listed in my "table of contens"? i would be satisfied if i could label pages, so that i could refer to a page number.. . or is there possibility to "rename" index and put it in your "table of contents.."? thank you for any answer.. tanja ... -- +++ GMX DSL Premiumtarife 3 Monate gratis* + WLAN-Router 0,- EUR* +++ Clevere DSL-Nutzer wechseln jetzt zu GMX: http://www.gmx.net/de/go/dsl -- +++ GMX DSL Premiumtarife 3 Monate gratis* + WLAN-Router 0,- EUR* +++ Clevere DSL-Nutzer wechseln jetzt zu GMX: http://www.gmx.net/de/go/dsl

ff, fi ligatures and tex4ht
I have been playing around with tex4ht. Adding \usepackage{tex4ht} then running the file through latex and bibtex followed by a final run of tex4ht produces pretty impressive results. The only real problem I'm suffering from is what it's doin to 'fi' and 'ff' ligatures. Is there any way I can get it to be boring and just leave "fi" as "fi"? -- Angus
Re: Printing problem
I think I have solved this. I was using a rather aged version of tetex (1.0. something), but after some google bashing, managed to beat some version 2 rpms into working, and can now print. Can't help thinking I have some more learning to do though... Next game is gbib, but that'll be a whole new thread!

Summary for the query on use avant font in equations
The original question was how to use avant font in the equations. The problem is solved: I a Linux Debian Sarge I do: 1) Download "sansmath.sty" from: http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/misc/ 2) With then command "kpsepath tex" you get the paths, where TeX search for files. I get: /home/totxo/texmf/tex/generic/ /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/generic/ /usr/local/lib/texmf/tex/generic/ /var/lib/texmf/tex/generic/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/ /home/totxo/texmf/tex/ /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/ /usr/local/lib/texmf/tex/ /var/lib/texmf/tex/ /usr/share/texmf/tex/ 3) As root, make the directory -p /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex # mkdir -p /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex 4) As root, copy "sansmath.sty" to /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/: # cp sansmath.sty /usr/local/share/texmf/tex/latex/ 3) Submit the command: # texhash 4) Start lyx 8) Put in the preamble (Format -> Document -> Preamble): \usepackage{sansmath} \sansmath and add commands like: \mathversion{sans} and \mathversion{normal} where necessary in your document.

Re: Printing problem
This may be a wild goose chase for you. Someone out there may have a *much* better answer. Debug LyX: from a line command, type in lyx -dbg. This will give you the lyx debug flag definitions. Debug dvips from within LyX: In the Outputs Printers configuration section, change the printer command to dvips -d 2 This will set the debug level of dvips to 2.You can find all the debug flag definitions at http://www.tug.org/texinfohtml/dvips.html#Debug-options You may want to start out just debugging dvips. You can capture the all the debug info by starting lyx from a command line with appropriate output redirection, for example lyx -dbg 2 >debugoutput.txt 2>&1 Leave off the -dbg 2 to not start off with lyx debug. lyx >debugoutput.txt 2>&1 These command forms will redirect standard output and standard error to the file debugoutput.txt. You may want to investigate the "-u" option for dvips (http://www.tug.org/texinfohtml/dvips.html#Option-details): -u /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config/psfonts.map perhaps. Lastly, and possibly most ignorantly of me, you could add the printer definition through texconfig david wolfson wrote: Thanks for the replys. First off, I tried the 'hit the print button, not just enter' and had no luck. Would've been nice though... Going into a bit more detail then.

how to use a new class
Hi I have a basic experience of LyX, but now I got a problem that I am not able to solve: I have a class file "svmono.cls", and also another file "svind.ist" from a publisher. It is a style file for a book. I tried to explore the customization manual, but without success. Is there anybody, or any place where I can get a step-by-step procedure to use this class within lyx and to create its layout? Any suggestion is welcomed best regards Giorgio Zavarise __ Prof. Dr. Ing.
