RE: unavailable classes
I'm using LyX in Windows with the MikTeX package. I chose to install everything when I installed MikTeX, but I'm still missing the CV class. How do I get this class (and the other unavailable classes, and how (and where) do I install them. Thanks Andreas Kofod-Hansen -Original Message- From: Jeremy C.

On my system, lyx also doesn't see the class: +checking for document class cv [cv]... no It is available for me at /usr/pkg/share/lyx/tex/cv.cls Should the lyx installation put these into a known LaTeX path? Or should it run mktexlsr? I fixed the lyx packages for pkgsrc by patching lib/Makefile.in so it would not install the $(TEXSUPPORT) files. Then I manually installed these files to my tex directory. Can the lyx configure add an option to choose where they can be installed? So it can easily be installed to ${PREFIX}/share/texmf/tex/latex/lyx/ for example. I didn't look, but I was also told that Debian's lyx package also installs these files to its own hierarchy. And Gentoo uses a symlink to /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/lyx for same.

Spell checking multiple languages?
Hi I have read that it's possible to spell check a multiple language, but the statement that it is possible have never been accompanied by a guide on to how to do it, so this is what I ask now. Regards Andreas P.S. I use Lyx in Windows with Aspell as the spell checker.
Abstracts in multiple languages, preface and acknowledgements
Hi I'm writing my masters thesis in lyx, and as I'm writing the thesis in danish, an abstract in english (as well as one in danish) is required. I have tried using the latex directive selectlanguage to select first English (or more correctly, British) and then Danish, and that has worked ok as far as selecting the language the abstract header is displayed in. However, the page numbering is ruined as it's reset every when reaching the second abstract. How do I solve this? Do I simply use unnumbered chapters for the abstracts, or is there another way around it using the abstract text class. What about roman numbers before the TOC, is that possible in Lyx, or do I need to use Latex directives? And. what about the preface and acknowledgements? I haven't found any way of selecting this in any of document classes, so how do I get around this? Any help is appreciated Regards Andreas
