Re: does my module require a package?
OK, but how does this work on the first string you encounter? I.e.,
we have something like:
lex.setFile(...)
while (lex.isOK()) {
s = lex.getString();
lex.next(true);
}
but will this work the first time?
It i strange that we do not need to start with a lex.next()...
But Lexer is strange anyway.

Of course it does (when you ask nicely). Lexer::next(true) should do
the trick.

I don't think we need it for the present issue.

But why is it used for parsing a comment? As this is not obvious (the description text is a comment in the *.module source file), documenting that you must not use "double quotes" in the module description would help prevent such surprises.

does my module require a package?
Dear List,
whenever I load a file that loads the following package, I get a
popup-window warning me that I am missing a package:
Das Modul fancybreak benötigt ein Paket, das in
Ihrer LaTeX-Installation nicht enthalten ist.
LaTeX wird wahrscheinlich keine Ausgabe erzeugen.
Luckily, LaTeX does produce an output file, but the multiple warnings (when
opening a project with several children using the module) are still annoying.
What am I doing wrong?
LyX 1.6.2 on Linux.
