Hi there - it's been a long time since I last posted anything here.
How can I get a list of lyx commands which can be called from macros or
passed via the -x flag? I'm using LyX1.4.2 on windows and linux.
thanks

I'm using the windows build of lyx 1.3.3 (old, I know. I'll move up to
the more recent version when I get a chance) so the following little
issues might not still be present in the current version. Alternatively,
they may be something to do with MikTex which I'm using to generate
PDFs. Anyhow.

Can anyone suggest a way (if any exists) of preventing or discouraging
latex from breaking a sentence across a page break where a figure float
occupies the whole of the next page, essentially interposing a figure in
a sentence? Sort of like this.
Page1
Text of first page etc. etc.
First off, I'm no expert in Lyx or latex. However, I have recently been
trying to achieve a similar effect, in my case trying to make sure that
the preface (which I have after the TOC) has roman page numbers in the
