yes, I sort of remember seeing this somewhere but wasn't able to find it when I looked for it... This seems to be the standard way to do the job. I think the only advantage over a perl line #!perl would be a more helpful error message, am I wrong? Both eval ... and #!perl require that perl is

table bug

Regarding borders. When you designate certain cells of the first row of a table as Multicolumn, then try and delete the left vertical lines (and right?) of any particular box, LyX displays that the entire column's left vertical line has been removed. However, LyX generates the right LaTeX code,

Delete row works properly. Delete row five, and you can hit Delete Row again and delete row six. Not so with Delete Column. After you delete column 8, hit Delete Column again and you delete column 1. -- -lsm
