Hi,

I'm trying to cobble together a module that would load etex.sty before xy.sty,
which LyX automagically loads. The problem is that you can't use XY-pic with
Beamer unless you load etex first.  Since etex is apparently not a "feature" (in
latexfeatures.cpp), "Requires" doesn't buy me anything. Is there some other way
in a module to force a \RequirePackage at the top of the document?

Thanks,
Paul

In a module, with the usual definition and format lines at the top, put:

provides xypic

AddToPreamble
  \usepackage{etex}
  \usepackage{xypic}
EndPreamble
