Don't let us start this discussion again. We decided that we do not want tex2lyx to produce a corrupted file format. So all features that came in after file format 247 have to be imported as ERT. If there are changes in tex2lyx that do not follow this rule (which ones?), they have to be reverted. I know the situation is not satisfying. However, you can collect this new changes in a private tree (or a branch) and merge them in as soon as tex2lyx can produce an up to date file format. Jürgen
