When I try to see eps picture in the Lyx window, Lyx uses convert.exe (I
chose to do so) in order to convert the picture as either png, or bmp
etc... formats. Having used the Lyx -dbg graphics function and having
used by hand 'convert test.eps test', I could see that convert uses

Isn't the LyX founder Matthias Ettrich able to underwrite a QT3 licence? I

Is there any reason why he couldn't compile it with QT 3? That would also
solve some other display problems.

I added converters for all important image formats -> EPS and -> PNG
(except JPG -> PNG (when I add this, JPG could no longer displayed insinde
