No idea, but PayPal will do the currency conversion for you. If you want
to find out how many euros 10 dollars is, say, just google "10 dollars
in euros". Then give that many euros.
Once you log into PayPal, and right before you actually pay, PayPal will
tell you how many dollars it is, since your account is in dollars. There
are of course some fees built into that, so it will probably be slightly
more.

problema with the instalation of Lyx 2.3.1 in Windows 10
Hi I have serious problems with the instalation of new version 2.3.1 of Lyx in Windows 10. I have been using version 2.3, with the latest installer made by Uwe (LyX-230-Installer-6), without any problem. I decided to install version 2.3.1 with the official installer (LyX-231-Installer-2). It seems to install correctly, but when the installation is finished it is impossible to start the program. I have done several tests. I uninstall all Lyx versions (2.2.3 and 2.3), I reinstall Lyx 2.3.1, but again the program does not want to start. The same problem occurs with the official installer of version 2.3. But curiously, with Uwe's version I don't have this problem. ' As last I decided to restore the system and install everything again. But again 2.3.1 does not boot after a clean installation. Finally, I decided to go back to version 2.3 with the Uwe installer (LyX-230-Installer-6). This version works correctly. I have Windows 10 pro, installed on an Asus computer, System Model UX490UAR. I would appreciate any help. Sergio

Did you do a system upgrade? What changed? Do you use revision control for your .lyx file?

Re: Supporting the cleverref package?
Thanks, I wasn't aware of \prettyref support :)
For my purposes this fits the bill, as the commands seem to be effectively
interchangeable and only really differ in how the formatting is determined.
Well, except for a possibility to make \cref automatically capitalize at
the beginning of sentences, as done by \prettyref, but I found that
sentences rarely start with references anyway.

Don't rate this as a feature. The feature here actually is that the
native file dialog can be turned on by default on Linux. The non-native
dialog never worked properly on anything else than Linux.
Maybe the announcement should have stated more clearly ("relevant only
on Linux").
