You don't need to update the converter since lyx through lyx2lyx will

Thanks for your reply. When I installed Rtools, I did:

So that is the problem. The 'View' button was disabled because the

I am not sure about the reason why these converters are not there.

I personally think it's a *good* thing that LyX does not make this easy.
I agree. I

Hi,
I am wondering if it is conceivable to generate (with a script) Lyx files, that
can be later opened in Lyx to perform final editing/touch-ups before generating
my final book?
Is their some documentation on the Lyx file format

Hi Yihui,
Thanks for your help. I just checked the converter part, surprisingly there
is 0 converter from Sweave to LaTeX ! I never thought about this as I think

Hi Liviu,
Thanks for your reply. When I installed Rtools, I did:
1) Change the installation directory;
2) Package authoring installation;
3) Select current value of PATH;
Then installed. So I only used the default option for Step 2). And I restart
Lyx
multiple times after reconfiguration
So that is the problem. The 'View' button was disabled because the
converter associated with the Sweave module does not exist.
I am not sure about the reason why these converters are not there.
JMarc should be more familiar with the configuration behind the scene.
