Forget about beauty, this is about functionality and convenience: copying from LyX (trunk), I can send you this (I hope you can display it correctly, at least it shows up OK while I'm composing it): * For each hosts pair ( j 1 ,j 2 )∈ H × H , a set P j 1 ,j 2 of interconnection paths may be available and usable, where each path p∈ P j 1 ,j 2 is associated with the sequence P j 1 ,j 2 ,p of its L j 1 ,j 2 ,p links P j 1 ,j 2 ,p ={ ( a j 1 ,j 2 ,p,1 ,b j 1 ,j 2 ,p,1 ),… ,( a j 1 ,j 2 ,p,L j 1 ,j 2 ,p ,b j 1 ,j 2 ,p,L j 1 ,j 2 ,p ) }⊂ L . LyX Document Leaving the meaning aside, my question is: how can I write this in Thunderbird? The only way is to attach the .lyx document, or an export of it, and it takes just more time to do that, rather than copy/paste. If I could install a LyX plug-in in Thunderbird allowing me to natively write e-mails in LyX, I would probably use that! My2c, T.
