OK, it's not a fix, it's a workaround, but still. Thanks. > When you switch keymaps, are you switching languages as well? Rarely. I know I should, but mostly I just need to write Russian documents, but with many (long) English paragraphs in them. Still, the documents' language is Russian, I mean I need the babel package to insert labels etc. in Russian ONLY. So I'm getting away with not setting the language of the chars. > In other words, is every keymap that you use associated with a > different language? Like I said, no, but only because switching languages is quite cumbersome in LyX, since it's not keyboard-driven. You have to take your mouse, then do like 3-4 clicks to accomplish this, no? Or is there a better way? > Basically, my idea is just to associate a keymap directly with a > language, so that switching to that language will automatically > switch the keymap. Would that work for you, or not? I think associating keymaps with languages is a great idea, and it makes a lot of sense to me. But why not the other way around, you switch the keymap, and LyX changes the language, too? Maybe the keymap format could be improved, so that the language to switch to could be defined in the keymap file itself? Andrei
