LyX on SGI and Mac

1999-09-28 Thread Richard Wan



Hello everyone,

I have just discovered lyX and I'm eager to try it. Unfortunately, I don't
have Linux readily installed on a computer as I'm a Mac and SGI user.
Therefore, my questions are as follows:

(a) Can lyX be installed on IRIX 6.5. Being not very familiar with intricate
compilation on Unix, I would prefer a precompiled version which would work
on IRIX 6.5. Could someone direct me to the site where an Irix version
(compiled or source) is available?

(b) Is there a version of lyX on the Mac platform? This would much easier to
install!

Thank-you in advance!

You need the XForms library and a c++ compiles. XForms is available in
binary form for SGI/IRIX. Look at http://bragg.phys.uwm.edu/xforms.

Compiling and installing LyX on a decent Unix system is as easy as to type

gzip -dc lyx-1.0.3.tar.gz | tar xf -
cd lyx-1.0.3
./configure
make 
make install


 (b) Is there a version of lyX on the Mac platform? This would much easier to

AFAIK, not, but you can install Linux or NetBSD in your Mac :-).
