It is not done currently, because the update is really slow.

Yes, problem solved. I've updated bugzilla and marked the bug as
"WORKSFORME". Do you want me to file a new one, as a feature request?

Indeed. I'll fix that. Does this mean that your problem is now solved?

No, I had not, and wasn't aware of the need to do so. I had thought
Reconfigure would take care of that kind of thing. It's unintuitive, at
least to me, that it doesn't, since Reconfigure does update the LaTeX
classes, so I'd suggest that perhaps Reconfigure should also update the
list of BibTeX styles.

  Thank you, Richard. I spaced on that step.

Moreover, LyX 1.3.5 apparently finds the style file if it's in the  
same

This works for me too.

All bst files that can be found via kpsewhich should show up in the list.
That works for me, both with a personal texmf path that I put in TEXINPUTS,
and a department wide texmf path set with TEXMFLOCAL.

Does
kpsewhich heck.bst

find the style? If yes, please file a bug report at http://bugzilla.lyx.org.

"BibTeX-related files shall be stored in:

texmf/bibtex/bib/package/
texmf/bibtex/bst/package/"

--

For OS X
The .bst files and the corresponding .sty go in different
directories. Place the .bst files in ~/Library/texmf/bibtex/bst and
the .sty files in  ~/Library/texmf/tex/latex/misc.

--

This information was current as of Dec. 27, 2005
I've also seen /localtexmf recommended for this.

To refresh the filename database I think "texhash" works
and then I run Reconfigure from Lyx which may not be needed.

I have had to create the "package" directory name, but it
will probably work just putting the file in ~/bibtex/bst.

Run 'locate .bst' to see where the others are. Move your new one 
there. From within LyX run 'reconfigure'; kill the process, and 
restart it. It should be there as an option for you in the 
bibliography section of the Document dialog box.
This doesn't work for me. I've got heck.bst in my local TeX tree, and 
working with TeX, but it does not show up in the bibliography style

Re: New BibTeX Style

[Richard Heck]

Use your file-search tool to find alpha.bst. Or try "kpsewhich 
alpha.bst". You can put your bst files in roughly the same place and 
then run texhash, or whatever the equivalent "update the tex directory 
structure" command is on the Mac. Even better is to create a local tex 
directory structure under your home directory and put such files there. 
In my case, those files are at /home/rgheck/texmf/bibtex/bst/base/. 
Exactly where your local tree should be is determined by texmf.cnf. 
(Again, find this using kpsewhich or your file-find tool.) That file 
defines a variable HOMETEXMF, which in my case is $HOME/texmf. You can 
of course define it as you wish.


I don't know how to get these to show up in the bibliography listing, or 
even if that is possible. But you can always get to them manually, using 
the "browse" button.
