With the unicode support since LyX 1.5 the file /examples/currency.lyx is now obsolete:You can now simply insert all currency symbols directly via keyboard or a character table probram of your OS.
Therefore I would like to remove it. OK, also for LyX 1.5.3? regards Uwep.s. When somebody knows a LaTeX-package to typeset the "new shequel sign": ₪ and/or the former "Peseta sign": ₧, please tell me.
