Managing acknowledgements and disclosures?

[Chris Hennick]

Tonight I decided that when I was citing books or reprints that had been
given to me, I should probably add an acknowledgement, like so:

The authors wish to thank donors for the following reference materials: [#]
from Jane Doe, [#] from John Doe, and [#, #] from anonymous sources.


However, I'll have to manually edit this acknowledgement if I drop one of
those sources, or if I receive and cite another reprint. It also occurs to
me that I'd have the same issue if I were buying source materials with
grant money, since then the citations would determine which grant numbers
went on which papers. (At least, that's how I understand funding
disclosure, although as a grad student I'm new to the subject.)

Is it possible in LyX to automatically manage acknowledgements and grant
disclosures, when some of them are tied to particular citations?

This depends.

If you have formulas that you use in both, English (or German) and
Spanish documents (vie file inclusion or drag and drop) and want the
"localized" function names in Spanish, it makes sense to re-define \sin
to be rendered as "sen" in the Spanish document.

If you only write in Spanish, it is a matter of personal taste whether to
write \sin or \sen in the source.

You can re-define \sin in the preamble:

  \renewcommand{\sin}{\sen}

With LyX, you can use math-macros to define Spanish function names that
render as sen (etc) in LyX also without instant preview.

Well Ignacio, If I create an Spanish document, and use "\sin x", Lyx
(on screen) renders it as "sin x". If I use "\sen x", Lyx will render
it (again, on screen) as "\sen x". What I would like is that by using
localization (Spanish), Lyx recognizes that "\sin x" should be
rendered as "sen x". The thing is that I don't know if this a
desirable behavior.

Again, should LaTeX do it automatically? Meaning, in the PDF.
