Ticket #8298
It'd be handy to have easy access to PDF versions of LyX manuals. Is there a
place where current LyX manuals are posted on the web in PDF, or could PDFs be
included with the installer?
On wiki.lyx.org/LyX/Manuals I get:
Deprecated: Function eregi() is deprecated in
/home/lyx/www/wiki.lyx.org/farm.d/cookbook/uploadlist.php
Maybe PHP got upgraded there?

I can be convinced that setting the timeout value on a chunk-by-chunk basis is
excessive, but per converter is too coarse. Maybe per document?

Sweave works beautifully in 2.0.2, huge thanks to Yihui Xie et al. But the
situation "beyond" Sweave seems problematic. Ticket #7887 is stalled. There's
neither a pgfSweave module nor a knitr module. knitr is not even available for
2.24.1 for Windows.

There's been a great deal of work done on branch since 2.0.0 came out. (Thanks

In LyX 1.6.8,
1. Create a new document.
2. Type in two words, word1 and word2.
3. Select and copy word2.
4. Highlight word1 and Insert, Note, LyX Note. word1 will be placed
inside a new note.
5. Paste.
Expected: paste outputs word2, as copied in (3)
Actual: paste outputs word1, from (4)
I see that Uwe has kindly uploaded the alternative 1.6.8 installer for Windows.
Is anyone preparing the official one also?
