To all whom it may concern, When installing LyX on a Windows machine with a python 3 distribution already in place, LyX may fail to initialize since the python scripts are incompatible. To resolve this I'm using the following batch file (LyX.bat) to set the appropriate environment variable:
@echo off SETLOCAL SET pythonpath=C:\Program Files (x86)\LyX16\python;C:\Program Files (x86)\LyX16\python\Lib;C:\Program Files (x86)\LyX16\python\Lib\encodings; start "LyX" "C:\Program Files (x86)\LyX16\bin\LyXLauncher.exe" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9 ENDLOCAL Good Luck. -- Ram Kromberg ramkromb...@mail.com
