Re: citation prefix

[Miki Dovrat]

Thanks for the answers.

I know a footnote would be the way to do it, but some journals don't 
distinguish between footnotes and bibliography items, and all of them 
(footnotes and references) appear at the end with the same numbering. This 
is what I would have liked.

Re: What's on YOUR BibTeX Wish List?

[Martin A. Hansen]

Hello Richard


Many scientific papers have a tendency to provide a bibliography layout file
in endnote format and never a .bst file. Perhaps it would be possible to
convert endnote-bst config?

Now, apart from this, I support your idea to make a simplified version of
makebst (which is a very useful tool, but I often have to redo the process
several times to get everything in order - and I am constantly confused in
this process as well).

First thing is to realize that a bibtex entry consists of a number of blocks
and that the blocks used in an bibtex entry depends on the entry type.
Second, the order of blocks should be configurable (title block before date
block or visa verse). Thirdly, each block should be configurable in all the
details (et al in italics or not, etc.).

Keeping these three things in mind, I think it is important to sort out the
question about which blocks should be used for a given entry type, then what
order the blocks should be in for this entry type, and finally the layout
for the blocks. Keeping these three levels separate should also simplify the
syntax.

some pseudo syntax:

entry=article
  author block
   
  title block
  . 
  journal block
  . 
  pages block
  , 
  date block
/entry

block=author
   last name
   ., 
   first name
/block

block=title
   title, font-style=italics
/block



And most importantly. A small set of test references should be available so
that you can test the outcome of you bibliography layout with the click of a
button. That is a problem with makebst, that you have to go through a long
process before you can test the layout. Actually, this is one spot where I
would like to see some WYSIWYG.


Best regards,


Martin

In a recent thread, there was some discussion about inadequacies of
standard BibTeX styles, especially as regards work in the humanities.
Having a little time free, I decided to educate myself as much as
possible about BibTeX styles and see what I could do. To this point, I
have a working TRANSLATOR field; I can use both author and editor in
books (e.g., Hume, David (1978). /A Treatise on Human Nature/, ed. by
L. A. Selby-Bigge, etc);/ / I've manged to overcome this problem with
how makebst handles dashed versions of repeated authors:
Heck, R. (1993). ...
- (1995). ...
Heck, R. (ed). (1997). ...
Heck, R. (2001). ...
- (2003). 
and, most importantly to me, I've figured out how to allow the use of
abbreviations for some references (i.e., instead of (Hume, 1978, p. 23),
I can have (/Treatise/, p. 23), or whatever, but only for specific
works); and to do all of that using natbib, so that I don't have to give
up LyX's support for natbib or deal with the complexities of jurabib.

There's more work to do. In particular, I'm working on an alternative to
makebst that is intended to be more flexible but not much harder to use,
especially for those of us who need more customization than the question
and answer format offers. The idea here is that formats for various
types of entries can be written in a sort of format-by-example syntax, e.g
.:

NAME.FORMAT=last-first

BIBTYPE ARTICLE
  NAME=AUTHOR
  BIBFORMAT
$NAME ($CITATION): `$TITLE', \emph{$JOURNAL} $VOLUME|($NUMBER)|: %
|IF|$PAGES.MULTI||pp. ||pg. ||$PAGES.
  ENDFORMAT
ENDTYPE

BIBTYPE BOOK
  NAME=AUTHOR, EDITOR
  EDITOR.FORMAT=first-last-etal
  BIBFORMAT
$NAME ($CITATION): $TITLE.emph|IF|$AUTHOR, ed. by
$EDITOR||. %
$ADDRESS, $PUBLISHER.
  ENDFORMAT
ENDTYPE

That's an example of the intended syntax. I'm guessing most of you will
be able to figure out what it should do. (It does nothing yet, as the
program hasn't been written.) Comments appreciated.

That leads to my question. While I'm at this, I'd like to have some
sense what it is that other people wish their BibTeX styles would do. So
what DO people wish BibTeX would do? Other than make it easier to create
formats for specific journals and the like: That's what the above will
do. Are there other frustrations? as, for me, were the absence of a
TRANSLATOR field, the inability to use author and editor at the same
time, the inability to define citation abbreviations, and the like?

Best,
Richard

You mean as endnotes, right? That is, there would be no separate

endnotes.

If that's what You are looking for, please take a look at jurabib

Yes, unless you can find it precompiled for your platform.

In 1.3, when you configure without any special option, you do get the
xforms version. To get the qt version, you need to use the switch
--with-frontend=qt. I do not think you will find that the xforms
frontend is better in 1.3.

In 1.4, it is required to specify which frontend you want (xforms, qt,

--with-frontend='qt xforms'. Xforms will feel snappier, in particular
when scrolling or selecting text. But of course it is ugly (in

Jürgen,

  I'll give that a test run and see if it works better. But, for the present,
I've changed the labels to numbers rather than names and dates because the
latter produces rather ugly output in the bibliography section.

  When I use BibTeX and select the name-date format for the in-text
citations, the bibliography listing at the end of the document has the
references in alphabetical order. Using the bibliography environment, the
label is placed along the left margin, then the full reference is typeset in
what appears to be a right-side column. But, if the in-text citation is long,
for example, Wallace and Grommit 1990, then that's what's printed along the
left and all references are pushed far to the right side. Ugly and not
expected -- by me at least.

  However, when I change the in-text citations to numbers, then the number is
printed along the left margin and the body of the reference inset by what
appears to be a tab stop. Much nicer.

Many thanks,

Rich

  Yes, I found that in the log file after you pointed it out, thanks. It 
  changes the html source code properly, so no need of Search  Replace.
  
  But first it seems it is needed to generate the .png files with htlatex.
  
  1. copy demoarticle.tex (or something.tex) and drawing.eps to C:\demo
  2. htlatex demoarticle.tex to produce the .png files and html.
  3. htlatex demoarticle.tex html,jpg changes the names in source code
  4. mogrify  -format jpg  *.png change all the .png to .jpg keeps .png
  
  ImageMagicks mogrify batches a wizard's spell within the htlatex potion.

Here is the output after conversion, as you see no .jpg files, only some 
pngs, and not demoarticle0x.png, demoarticle1x.png, demoarticle2x.png

The html source code in demoarticle.html refers to .jpgs though.

I will attach tex4ht.env and the piped demo.txt in this post.
In the next post, the demoarticle.log file.

I think the problem may be due to my older version of ImageMagick.
I will test both of the new 6.2.8 releases for quality of .png
image and to see if the .jpg generation has been fixed. It works
for Ares who has 6.2.8 which is why I suspect this.

Help with Bibliography for book class

[LB]

Hello

I'm using document class book(mwbk) with Lyx 1.4.1 on Win XP.  The latex 
forces the bibliography to start on a new page, as it supposed to do. 
However, I would like to have the bibliography to start immediately after 
the text.  I have tried different, but not all, bibliography styles with no 
success.  My citation style is default (I'm not sure whether that changes 
anything).


Can anybody help me with this?

Thank you
LB

No, use the oolatex macro in tex4ht. It will convert your file to the
openoffice format. Much better. You will keep footnotes and have text 
with a stylesheet that you can adjust inside your wordprocessor.


Going through html is a mistake except for very simple documents.

SH: I don't agree with you. Look at this html file created by htlatex.

http://www.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/~gumm/LyX/Using_XYpic_in_LyX.htm

Perhaps it is a subjective matter, but I don't most people would
consider this file a very simple document. Word is able to import
the file just about perfectly and save it as .doc. I didn't test
this with OpenOffice- as I'm accepting the claims made on its behalf.

The OP didn't seem to know much about portability as he mentioned .rtf.
So I addressed portability needs he might not have thought about. One
can make a good .doc using htlatex first to generate an html file. But
you can't make a good html conversion from a file that has equations
using expensive software, Word 2003 or Adobe Writer Pro, and I very
much doubt the ability of OpenOffice to do this. Actually the best
word to describe such a conversion to html is horrific.

So I consider htlatex as a commendable alternative depending on the
unstated future uses for his conversion needs. I didn't say to use
htlatex because it is better than your suggestion, you read that
into my post. I contributed useful information, IMO. Besides, Yaron
Goland finds htlatex useful for his blog, and such conversions can
later find a home on a company/edu web site. Just to be clear,
your choice may be better for the OP, I'm disagreeing with your
dismissing htlatex so readily. http://www.goland.org/lyx/ :

8 Making Pretty HTML

The easiest way to generate HTML output is to go to File-Export-HTML.
This produces great quality HTML but unfortunately the output does not
properly support BibTex. So if BibTex is used there will be no
bibliography and the citations will all show up as [?].

To get around this I go to File-Export-LATEX to generate a .tex file.
Let's assume that file is called myfile.tex. I next open a terminal
window, navigate to the directory containing myfile.tex and type in the
following commands:

latex myfile

bibtex myfile

latex myfile

latex myfile

htlatex myfile 'XHTML'

Notice that the extension .tex is not used. Then end result will be
a file called myfile.html that will contain a full HTML representation,
with a bibliography and will generate gifs for any math formulas.



SH: I don't use LyX's export as HTML, but rather export as .tex
and then run htlatex on that. The current default is .png which
can be changed. My purpose is to show that htlatex is not as limited
as you represented it, to very simple documents. Also htlatex may
not be the most convenient, but is a useful option to keep in hand.
If you want to rebut that, criticize the value of my example file,
Using_XYpic_in_LyX.htm, which I think is surpasses simplistic. Or
if OpenOffice also can produce html output of the same quality as
htlatex, then that would excuse the option of keeping htlatex alive.
Obviously, I didn't offer htlatex in the context of continuing to
develop a document, the purpose of LyX, unless OOo replaces LyX.

I meant no dichotomy,
Stephen

  I think the problem may be due to my older version of ImageMagick.

ImageMagick works fine.  The problem is in how tex4ht is configured.

Also, in tex4ht.env, replace the above record with

Note: the G and g records shouldn't contain leading spaces.

It might also be worth noticing that tex4ht got quite a few
improvements since 2004:

Re: citation prefix

[Miki Dovrat]

Thanks for the answers.

I know a footnote would be the way to do it, but some journals don't 
distinguish between footnotes and bibliography items, and all of them 
(footnotes and references) appear at the end with the same numbering. This 
is what I would have liked.

Re: What's on YOUR BibTeX Wish List?

[Martin A. Hansen]

Hello Richard


Many scientific papers have a tendency to provide a bibliography layout file
in endnote format and never a .bst file. Perhaps it would be possible to
convert endnote-bst config?

Now, apart from this, I support your idea to make a simplified version of
makebst (which is a very useful tool, but I often have to redo the process
several times to get everything in order - and I am constantly confused in
this process as well).

First thing is to realize that a bibtex entry consists of a number of blocks
and that the blocks used in an bibtex entry depends on the entry type.
Second, the order of blocks should be configurable (title block before date
block or visa verse). Thirdly, each block should be configurable in all the
details (et al in italics or not, etc.).

Keeping these three things in mind, I think it is important to sort out the
question about which blocks should be used for a given entry type, then what
order the blocks should be in for this entry type, and finally the layout
for the blocks. Keeping these three levels separate should also simplify the
syntax.

some pseudo syntax:

entry=article
  author block
   
  title block
  . 
  journal block
  . 
  pages block
  , 
  date block
/entry

block=author
   last name
   ., 
   first name
/block

block=title
   title, font-style=italics
/block



And most importantly. A small set of test references should be available so
that you can test the outcome of you bibliography layout with the click of a
button. That is a problem with makebst, that you have to go through a long
process before you can test the layout. Actually, this is one spot where I
would like to see some WYSIWYG.


Best regards,


Martin

In a recent thread, there was some discussion about inadequacies of
standard BibTeX styles, especially as regards work in the humanities.
Having a little time free, I decided to educate myself as much as
possible about BibTeX styles and see what I could do. To this point, I
have a working TRANSLATOR field; I can use both author and editor in
books (e.g., Hume, David (1978). /A Treatise on Human Nature/, ed. by
L. A. Selby-Bigge, etc);/ / I've manged to overcome this problem with
how makebst handles dashed versions of repeated authors:
Heck, R. (1993). ...
- (1995). ...
Heck, R. (ed). (1997). ...
Heck, R. (2001). ...
- (2003). 
and, most importantly to me, I've figured out how to allow the use of
abbreviations for some references (i.e., instead of (Hume, 1978, p. 23),
I can have (/Treatise/, p. 23), or whatever, but only for specific
works); and to do all of that using natbib, so that I don't have to give
up LyX's support for natbib or deal with the complexities of jurabib.

There's more work to do. In particular, I'm working on an alternative to
makebst that is intended to be more flexible but not much harder to use,
especially for those of us who need more customization than the question
and answer format offers. The idea here is that formats for various
types of entries can be written in a sort of format-by-example syntax, e.g
.:

NAME.FORMAT=last-first

BIBTYPE ARTICLE
  NAME=AUTHOR
  BIBFORMAT
$NAME ($CITATION): `$TITLE', \emph{$JOURNAL} $VOLUME|($NUMBER)|: %
|IF|$PAGES.MULTI||pp. ||pg. ||$PAGES.

That's an example of the intended syntax. I'm guessing most of you will
be able to figure out what it should do. (It does nothing yet, as the
program hasn't been written.) Comments appreciated.

That leads to my question. While I'm at this, I'd like to have some
sense what it is that other people wish their BibTeX styles would do. So
what DO people wish BibTeX would do? Other than make it easier to create
formats for specific journals and the like: That's what the above will
do. Are there other frustrations? as, for me, were the absence of a
TRANSLATOR field, the inability to use author and editor at the same
time, the inability to define citation abbreviations, and the like?

Best,
Richard

Re: citation prefix

[K. Elo]

Hi,

2006-06-27 10:30 +0200, Miki Dovrat:
 Thanks for the answers.
 
 I know a footnote would be the way to do it, but some journals don't 
 distinguish between footnotes and bibliography items, and all of them 
 (footnotes and references) appear at the end with the same numbering. This 
 is what I would have liked.

You mean as endnotes, right? That is, there would be no separate
literature list, because the bibliography itens are included in the
endnotes.

If that's what You are looking for, please take a look at jurabib
(www.jurabib.org) and use the package endnotes. In order to get endnotes
work in LyX, You'll need a dirty hack, see
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/HumanitiesLyX#toc10

Hope this helps!

Kind regards,
Kimmo

Re: Serious performance problem with LyX 1.4.1 on OS X

 If you ever upgrade to 1.4, you will find that the display is

Steve Do I need to recompile to switch to Xforms?

Yes, unless you can find it precompiled for your platform.

In 1.3, when you configure without any special option, you do get the
xforms version. To get the qt version, you need to use the switch
--with-frontend=qt. I do not think you will find that the xforms
frontend is better in 1.3.

In 1.4, it is required to specify which frontend you want (xforms, qt,
or the unofficial gtk). You can even specify several frontends, like
--with-frontend='qt xforms'. Xforms will feel snappier, in particular
when scrolling or selecting text. But of course it is ugly (in
particular the fonts are not antialiased on screen).

Jürgen,

  I'll give that a test run and see if it works better. But, for the present,
I've changed the labels to numbers rather than names and dates because the
latter produces rather ugly output in the bibliography section.

  When I use BibTeX and select the name-date format for the in-text
citations, the bibliography listing at the end of the document has the
references in alphabetical order. Using the bibliography environment, the
label is placed along the left margin, then the full reference is typeset in
what appears to be a right-side column. But, if the in-text citation is long,
for example, Wallace and Grommit 1990, then that's what's printed along the
left and all references are pushed far to the right side. Ugly and not
expected -- by me at least.

  However, when I change the in-text citations to numbers, then the number is
printed along the left margin and the body of the reference inset by what
appears to be a tab stop. Much nicer.

Many thanks,

Rich

if you can live with that, just use it instead of wasting your time

Running Header Text With Starred Sections

examples, and still cannot get the running header to display the appropriate
section and subsction _titles_ when using starred sectioning. If I use

I cannot extract the names. I've tried the extramarks package, and redefining
\sectionmark and \subsectionmark, but without success.

  Is it possible to get a running head with the section and subsection names
when using unnumbered sectioning?

Here is the output after conversion, as you see no .jpg files, only some

The html source code in demoarticle.html refers to .jpgs though.

I will attach tex4ht.env and the piped demo.txt in this post.
In the next post, the demoarticle.log file.

I think the problem may be due to my older version of ImageMagick.
I will test both of the new 6.2.8 releases for quality of .png
image and to see if the .jpg generation has been fixed. It works
for Ares who has 6.2.8 which is why I suspect this.

Help with Bibliography for book class

[LB]

Hello

I'm using document class book(mwbk) with Lyx 1.4.1 on Win XP.  The latex 
forces the bibliography to start on a new page, as it supposed to do. 
However, I would like to have the bibliography to start immediately after 
the text.  I have tried different, but not all, bibliography styles with no 
success.  My citation style is default (I'm not sure whether that changes 
anything).


Can anybody help me with this?

Thank you
LB

No, use the oolatex macro in tex4ht. It will convert your file to the

with a stylesheet that you can adjust inside your wordprocessor.


Going through html is a mistake except for very simple documents.

SH: I don't agree with you. Look at this html file created by htlatex.

http://www.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/~gumm/LyX/Using_XYpic_in_LyX.htm

Perhaps it is a subjective matter, but I don't most people would
consider this file a very simple document. Word is able to import
the file just about perfectly and save it as .doc. I didn't test
this with OpenOffice- as I'm accepting the claims made on its behalf.

The OP didn't seem to know much about portability as he mentioned .rtf.
So I addressed portability needs he might not have thought about. One
can make a good .doc using htlatex first to generate an html file. But
you can't make a good html conversion from a file that has equations
using expensive software, Word 2003 or Adobe Writer Pro, and I very
much doubt the ability of OpenOffice to do this. Actually the best
word to describe such a conversion to html is horrific.

So I consider htlatex as a commendable alternative depending on the
unstated future uses for his conversion needs. I didn't say to use
htlatex because it is better than your suggestion, you read that
into my post. I contributed useful information, IMO. Besides, Yaron
Goland finds htlatex useful for his blog, and such conversions can
later find a home on a company/edu web site. Just to be clear,
your choice may be better for the OP, I'm disagreeing with your
dismissing htlatex so readily. http://www.goland.org/lyx/ :

8 Making Pretty HTML

The easiest way to generate HTML output is to go to File-Export-HTML.
This produces great quality HTML but unfortunately the output does not
properly support BibTex. So if BibTex is used there will be no
bibliography and the citations will all show up as [?].

To get around this I go to File-Export-LATEX to generate a .tex file.
Let's assume that file is called myfile.tex. I next open a terminal
window, navigate to the directory containing myfile.tex and type in the
following commands:

latex myfile

bibtex myfile

latex myfile

latex myfile

htlatex myfile 'XHTML'

Notice that the extension .tex is not used. Then end result will be
a file called myfile.html that will contain a full HTML representation,
with a bibliography and will generate gifs for any math formulas.



SH: I don't use LyX's export as HTML, but rather export as .tex
and then run htlatex on that. The current default is .png which
can be changed. My purpose is to show that htlatex is not as limited
as you represented it, to very simple documents. Also htlatex may
not be the most convenient, but is a useful option to keep in hand.
If you want to rebut that, criticize the value of my example file,
Using_XYpic_in_LyX.htm, which I think is surpasses simplistic. Or
if OpenOffice also can produce html output of the same quality as
htlatex, then that would excuse the option of keeping htlatex alive.
Obviously, I didn't offer htlatex in the context of continuing to
develop a document, the purpose of LyX, unless OOo replaces LyX.

I meant no dichotomy,
Stephen

  I think the problem may be due to my older version of ImageMagick.

ImageMagick works fine.  The problem is in how tex4ht is configured.

Also, in tex4ht.env, replace the above record with

Note: the G and g records shouldn't contain leading spaces.

It might also be worth noticing that tex4ht got quite a few
improvements since 2004:

Re: citation prefix

[Miki Dovrat]

Thanks for the answers.

I know a footnote would be the way to do it, but some journals don't 
distinguish between footnotes and bibliography items, and all of them

is what I would have liked.

Re: What's on YOUR BibTeX Wish List?

[Martin A. Hansen]

Hello Richard


Many scientific papers have a tendency to provide a bibliography layout file
in endnote format and never a .bst file. Perhaps it would be possible to
convert endnote->bst config?

Now, apart from this, I support your idea to make a simplified version of
makebst (which is a very useful tool, but I often have to redo the process
several times to get everything in order - and I am constantly confused in
this process as well).

First thing is to realize that a bibtex entry consists of a number of blocks
and that the blocks used in an bibtex entry depends on the entry type.
Second, the order of blocks should be configurable (title block before date
block or visa verse). Thirdly, each block should be configurable in all the
details (et al in italics or not, etc.).

Keeping these three things in mind, I think it is important to sort out the
question about which blocks should be used for a given entry type, then what
order the blocks should be in for this entry type, and finally the layout
for the blocks. Keeping these three levels separate should also simplify the
syntax.

some pseudo syntax:

You mean as endnotes, right? That is, there would be no separate
literature list, because the bibliography itens are included in the
endnotes.

If that's what You are looking for, please take a look at jurabib
(www.jurabib.org) and use the package endnotes. In order to get endnotes
work in LyX, You'll need a "dirty" hack, see

Hope this helps!

Steve> Do I need to recompile to switch to Xforms?

Yes, unless you can find it precompiled for your platform.

In 1.3, when you configure without any special option, you do get the
xforms version. To get the qt version, you need to use the switch
--with-frontend=qt. I do not think you will find that the xforms
frontend is better in 1.3.

In 1.4, it is required to specify which frontend you want (xforms, qt,
or the unofficial gtk). You can even specify several frontends, like
--with-frontend='qt xforms'. Xforms will feel snappier, in particular
when scrolling or selecting text. But of course it is ugly (in
particular the fonts are not antialiased on screen).

The workaround I'm using for this is a standard paragraph with a single 
'%' in ERT. The '%' marks comments in LaTeX and therefore the paragraph 
will be ignored when LaTeX layouts the page.

Try to put a note inset instead of a protected blank. This should
avoid the problem with spacing.

A command line option `jpg' should provide the mentioned output
format. For instance,

  htlatex file "html,jpg"

-eitan





Yes, I found that in the log file after you pointed it out, thanks. It 
changes the html source code properly, so no need of Search & Replace.


But first it seems it is needed to generate the .png files with htlatex.

1. copy demoarticle.tex (or something.tex) and drawing.eps to C:\demo
2. "htlatex demoarticle.tex" to produce the .png files and html.
3. "htlatex demoarticle.tex "html,jpg" changes the names in source code
4. "mogrify  -format jpg  *.png" change all the .png to .jpg keeps .png

ImageMagicks mogrify batches a wizard's spell within the htlatex potion.

Jürgen,

  I'll give that a test run and see if it works better. But, for the present,
I've changed the labels to numbers rather than names and dates because the
latter produces rather ugly output in the bibliography section.

  When I use BibTeX and select the name-date format for the in-text
citations, the bibliography listing at the end of the document has the
references in alphabetical order. Using the bibliography environment, the
label is placed along the left margin, then the full reference is typeset in
what appears to be a right-side column. But, if the in-text citation is long,
for example, "Wallace and Grommit 1990," then that's what's printed along the
left and all references are pushed far to the right side. Ugly and not
expected -- by me at least.

  However, when I change the in-text citations to numbers, then the number is
printed along the left margin and the body of the reference inset by what
appears to be a tab stop. Much nicer.

Many thanks,

Rich

Rich,

if you can live with that, just use it instead of wasting your time
(although I'm sure it can be tweaked to your needs).

Personally, I never use the Bibliography environment, not even for small
papers. BibTeX is just much more convenient, and I got used to enter every
reference to the database anyway.

Note that there have been attempts to add a kind of makebst support to
jurabib (which never has been finished IMHO). I think that a combination of
jurabib and makebst would be very much the thing most humanists need. So if
you intend to do something like that anyway, why not joining the jurabib

Jürgen,

  I've not used it before, but I'm updating an article I wrote six years ago,
so I thought this would be a good opportunity to try the new environment.

  Now that I have RefDB fully functional, I have about 5,000 references to
add to it. That will take a lo-o-ong time.

Yes. I've looked a little bit also the makebst program. It is very crude. 

I would have tried to create something similar in Python if I had some free
time. But with a book to finish and two small kids, I do not have enough
free time.

Re: Serious performance problem with LyX 1.4.1 on OS X

[Yaron Y. Goland]

First, THANK YOU! I love LyX! And the integration that 1.4.x provided  
into OS X is great. It is still too slow for me to use but the  
direction is great and in the meantime I can use 1.3.7 which performs  
just fine on my mac.


Second, any idea when 1.4.2 might be released?

Thanks,

Yaron

P.S. If I can make a feature request for 1.4.2 what about native  
support for hypertarget and hyperlink? Having to enter and manage  
these manually as ERT is a nightmare!

Running Header Text With Starred Sections

[Rich Shepard]

  I'm stumped. I read the fancyhdr section in TLC2, tried all relevant
examples, and still cannot get the running header to display the appropriate
section and subsction _titles_ when using starred sectioning. If I use
\thesection and \thesubsection, I get 0 and 0.0 in the correct positions, but
I cannot extract the names. I've tried the extramarks package, and redefining
\sectionmark and \subsectionmark, but without success.

  Is it possible to get a running head with the section and subsection names
when using unnumbered sectioning?

Thanks,

Rich

Do you use unnumbered sections only (i.e. no numbered sections at all)? If
so, use section (not section*) and put the slider in
Layout->Document->Numbering to the very left.

Here is the output after conversion, as you see no .jpg files, only some 
pngs, and not demoarticle0x.png, demoarticle1x.png, demoarticle2x.png

The html source code in demoarticle.html refers to .jpgs though.

I will attach tex4ht.env and the piped demo.txt in this post.
In the next post, the demoarticle.log file.

I think the problem may be due to my older version of ImageMagick.
I will test both of the new 6.2.8 releases for quality of .png
image and to see if the .jpg generation has been fixed. It works
for Ares who has 6.2.8 which is why I suspect this.

It fails like in the first effort. Also attached is the

ImageMagick-6.2.3-2-Q16-windows-dll.exe
Next I will try the Imagemagick static.exe which is about 20mb.

ImageMagick-6.2.8-0-Q16-windows-static.exe about 20mb
also failed the same way. I had to run htlatex demoarticle.tex,
then mogrify to change the .pngs to .jpg in order for it to work.

Help with Bibliography for book class

[LB]

Hello

I'm using document class "book(mwbk)" with Lyx 1.4.1 on Win XP.  The latex 
forces the bibliography to start on a new page, as it supposed to do. 
However, I would like to have the bibliography to start immediately after 
the text.  I have tried different, but not all, bibliography styles with no 
success.  My citation style is default (I'm not sure whether that changes 
anything).


Can anybody help me with this?

Thank you
LB

No, use the oolatex macro in tex4ht. It will convert your file to the
openoffice format. Much better. You will keep footnotes and have text 
with a stylesheet that you can adjust inside your wordprocessor.


Going through html is a mistake except for very simple documents.

SH: I don't agree with you. Look at this html file created by htlatex.

http://www.mathematik.uni-marburg.de/~gumm/LyX/Using_XYpic_in_LyX.htm

Perhaps it is a subjective matter, but I don't most people would
consider this file a "very simple document". Word is able to import
the file just about perfectly and save it as .doc. I didn't test
this with OpenOffice-> as I'm accepting the claims made on its behalf.

The OP didn't seem to know much about portability as he mentioned .rtf.
So I addressed portability needs he might not have thought about. One
can make a good .doc using htlatex first to generate an html file. But
you can't make a good html conversion from a file that has equations
using expensive software, Word 2003 or Adobe Writer Pro, and I very
much doubt the ability of OpenOffice to do this. Actually the best
word to describe such a conversion to html is horrific.

So I consider htlatex as a commendable alternative depending on the
unstated future uses for his conversion needs. I didn't say to use
htlatex because it is better than your suggestion, you read that
into my post. I contributed useful information, IMO. Besides, Yaron
Goland finds htlatex useful for his blog, and such conversions can
later find a home on a company/edu web site. Just to be clear,
your choice may be better for the OP, I'm disagreeing with your
dismissing htlatex so readily. http://www.goland.org/lyx/ :

8 Making Pretty HTML

"The easiest way to generate HTML output is to go to File->Export->HTML.
This produces great quality HTML but unfortunately the output does not
properly support BibTex. So if BibTex is used there will be no
bibliography and the citations will all show up as [?].

To get around this I go to File->Export->LATEX to generate a .tex file.
Let's assume that file is called "myfile.tex". I next open a terminal
window, navigate to the directory containing myfile.tex and type in the
following commands:

latex myfile

bibtex myfile

latex myfile

latex myfile

htlatex myfile 'XHTML'

Notice that the extension ".tex" is not used. Then end result will be
a file called myfile.html that will contain a full HTML representation,
with a bibliography and will generate gifs for any math formulas."



SH: I don't use LyX's export as HTML, but rather export as .tex
and then run htlatex on that. The current default is .png which
can be changed. My purpose is to show that htlatex is not as limited
as you represented it, to "very simple documents". Also htlatex may
not be the most convenient, but is a useful option to keep in hand.
If you want to rebut that, criticize the value of my example file,
Using_XYpic_in_LyX.htm, which I think is surpasses simplistic. Or
if OpenOffice also can produce html output of the same quality as
htlatex, then that would excuse the option of keeping htlatex alive.
Obviously, I didn't offer htlatex in the context of continuing to
develop a document, the purpose of LyX, unless OOo replaces LyX.

I meant no dichotomy,
Stephen

ImageMagick works fine.  The problem is in how tex4ht is configured.

The above comment is wrong regarding the output format and can be
ignored.  I fixed the source tex4ht.c to provide correct notices.  The
comment has no bearing on the output format.

Can you try in tex4ht.env the following code segment instead of the above one.

   
Gif exist zz%%4.ps DEL zz%%4.ps >nul
Gif exist %%3 DEL %%3 >nul
Gdvips -E -Ppdf -mode ibmvga -D 110 -f %%1 -pp %%2 > zz%%4.ps
Gconvert zz%%4.ps -trim +repage -density 110x110 -transparent "#FF" %%3
Gif exist zz%%4.ps DEL zz%%4.ps >nul 
   

 >  g.png

Also, in tex4ht.env, replace the above record with

g.jpg

Note: the G and g records shouldn't contain leading spaces.

It might also be worth noticing that tex4ht got quite a few
improvements since 2004:
