Here ding{166} in Pakin is a black leaf with a small white hole and
the leaf is surrounded by its stem which is an almost completed
circle, while ding{166} in LyX gives a solid black leaf that hangs by
its stem from a small horizontal branch. It's the latter I wanted,
and that's why I didn't find it in Pakin. Weird.

Before the server died, I tried to download 1.5.0beta for Intel Mac and it didn't work for me. I don't recall all the details, but I think it was a .zip file, which the Mac couldn't unpack (it complained of an unexpected error or something along those lines).

Here ding{166} in Pakin is a black leaf with a small white hole and
the leaf is surrounded by its stem which is an almost completed
circle, while ding{166} in LyX gives a solid black leaf that hangs by
its stem from a small horizontal branch. It's the latter I wanted,

C-right moves the cursor to the _start_ of the next word in: MS Office; WordPerfect; NoteTab; MS Notepad; and MS Wordpad. This is on Win XP; maybe things work differently on a Mac?

Re: Very Impressive
Interesting suggestions. Note that there is a feature freeze right now (in order to release lyx 1.5) so development of anything new will have to wait for the release. Please come back with suggestions, or file "wihlist items" at bugzilla.lyx.org Jan Peters wrote: [...] - a compute and plot toolbar. There is no plot (other than the option of including graphichs produced by other means), but computations are definitely possible - even in lyx 1.4 Did you try the menu "edit->math->use Computer Algebra System" ? This menu is available when the cursor is inside a formula. It will pass the formula to the math app of your choice (octave/maxima/mathematica/maple) and re-import whatever result that app gets. Here is a calculus example: Enter d/dx x^3 in LyX edit->math->computer algebra->maxima The formula changes to d/dx x^3 = 3x^2 You will probably run into some limitations, the above example works with \frac, it does not work if you use the slash-key to enter the fraction.
