Two dashes vs. en-dash
I'm writing some technical documentation which covers the usage of GNU style long-opts where multi-character options are preceded with two dashes (--). However, when LyX sees two dashes together, it turns it into an elongated single dash (en-dash) which is confusing/wrong. I've looked in the Users Guide and it seems to be doing something like: -\/- to generate a double dash, but other then to copy/paste the \/ (which is in a red box), I can't figure out how to replicate the effect. Anyone know the magic keypress to create a double dash? Thanks, Aaron -- http://synfin.net/
installing a new TeX document class for LyXwin?
How would I go about installing a new TeX class and using it from within LyX? This class is "an extension of the standard article class," as quoted from the author. A copy is attached. Apparently, it has custom fields such as \name, \class, and \assignment. Can I fill these in from LyX? Am currently running LyXwin 1.3.5 and miktex 2.4.

I have also installed Python 2.4.1. Perhaps the simplest solution is to follow the advice given in LyXWinTips, http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LyXWinTips in the section "latex import" simply adding the lyx2lyx.cmd file suggested there is enough. It runs on my WinXP and in Win2000 at school. It only uses the programs packed by Ruurd. No need to reconfigure, install, or whatever. To me this is like black magic, but it worked in my case...

It is. Bibtex knows three kinds of string separators: space, tilde and hyphen.
Anway, you have to tell it that "J." and "F." are two strings.

\, is a nonbreakable "thin space", to be used inside abbreviations (e.\,g.).
~ is the LaTeX equivalent of LyX's nonbreakable (or protected) Space.

I think it should be Smith, J.~F. or rather Smith, J.\,F.
Probably, bibtex interprets J.F. as one word as long as there is no
space.
Of course you can also write J. F. or John Frederic and let bibtex output
J.F.
(or J.\,F. or whatever). I think this is the ideal solution, since all
formatting should be done by the bst file, not by you.

latex question
hi
i know this is not strictly on topic, but i am at my wits end:
i am trying to format a .bst file using latex makebst, and it is not
going very well. i select the resulting .bst file in lyx and renders a
dvi, and the references looks nice BUT only the first initial in the
author names is present - the rest are skipped!
so the author in the .bib file looks like this:
author = {Smith, J.F.}, and ends up as Smith, J.
now, it has not been possible for me to verify that the author format in
the bibtex file is ok. (the problem is solved if i introduce a blank
between the initials -> J. F., but i think that is wrong and a freak
fluke makes the latex output correct).
in the dbj made by makebst i have the following enabled:
,nm-rvx%: Surname + pure initials (Smith JF)
ideas are most welcome!!!

mwbk is a document class that is supposed to be tailored for books
written in Polish. I doubt this is what you want to do. If you want a
high quality and customizable class, I suggest to look up memoir. It
has a great manual that first explains how to typeset a book and
second how to use memoir commands.
Note that some memoir commands are not (yet) supported transparently
by LyX.

I think the fix I pointed above will be sufficient to get you started.
If you want to read about LaTeX, the TeXbook is definitely not the
first book to read. You could maybe try the not so short introduction
to LaTeX

or the memoir class documentation
