Another opinion. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
Hi Uwe, I am not a subscriber to lyx-devel, but I wanted to strongly agree with you this issue. You can forward this to your list if you like. For a long time, I have been trying to convince people to use LyX at my school. I use Debian. They invariably use Windows or Mac. After much arguing, one of them decided to try LyX on her Mac. She liked it, but emailed me a question. I said RTF example file that was relevant to her question. She couldn't find the example files and wrote back. I said click the Examples button on the Open dialogue, which is present on Debian but evidently is not the same on a Mac. She probably could have found them in the Mac filesystem with just a little more effort or competence, but she didn't. So, a few days later, I had to physically sit with her laptop and make a link to the directory with the examples on her Desktop. I don't know enough about the LyX code base to say anything intelligent about Uwe's patch, but I would agree philosophically.
