I guess because of the mailing list outage the mail has been forgotten. I looked at the patches in http://www.lyx.org/trac/ticket/9841, and I think it is a good implementation of the consensus that has been reached earlier. You have a +1 from me, but because this has been discussed with some strong opinions I suggest that there should be more reviews. > Then, what is a proper solution?

Another solution is to revert as I have > suggested. You don't need to do anything in tex2lyx besides writing the new parameter with a default value as you did in the patch. Georg
