- KLyX</a> is a port of LyX version 0.12.0 to KDE done primarily by
- Matthias Ettrich and Kalle Dalheimer. This port uses a more
- modern toolkit (namely Qt) than LyX (which uses XForms). This makes
- KLyX have a more modern look, and it is probably easier to use compared
- to the "normal" LyX if you are using <a href="http://www.kde.org";>KDE</a>.</p>

+ KLyX is a port of LyX to KDE1 and KDE2 done primarily by
+ Matthias Ettrich and Kalle Dalheimer. This port is based on a very old
+ version of LyX (0.12), and so has many missing features of recent versions
+ of LyX. KLyX also has some features not currently present in LyX.
+ </p>
+
<p>
KLyX and LyX are separate projects, and this web site is only about LyX.
KLyX is a part of the KDE effort, while LyX is independent of any other
projects. The development teams are separate, and the distribution
- channels are different. Read more about the differences on the
- <a href="http://www.lyx.org/~ettrich/klyx.html";>KLyX
- homepage</a>.</p>
+ channels are different. Archives of the KLyX mailing list can be found at
+ <a href="http://www.kde.com/maillists/list.php?li=klyx";>KLyX ML archive</a>.
+ </p>
<p>
- The KLyX and LyX Teams are working together to try to keep the
- versions compatible, but since these teams are composed of mostly different
- people, we can't guarantee that everything will work correctly. It
- is not a priority for the LyX Team to be compatible with KLyX.
- In particular, KLyX might have some features that LyX does not have, and
- vice versa. Those will for the most part be related to the user interface,
- and thus the file format should be exchangable without problems, but
- you should check yourself.</p>
+ KLyX, as it based on a very old version of LyX, is not compatible with current
+ versions of LyX.
+ </p>
<p>
- KLyX is considered to be a temporary version of LyX, and at some point
- in time the normal LyX will make KLyX obsolete. Before this happens
- (it could be a long time), please check out KLyX and decide for
- yourself which version you prefer. As of the 17th of September 1998,
- KLyX is still beta, while LyX is stable.</p>
-
- <p>
- The LyX Team would like to congratulate Matthias Ettrich and the rest
- of the KLyX Team on the port. It is a major technical accomplishment.
- Although the majority of the KLyX code will not directly benefit the
- development of LyX, we will hopefully be able to learn a lot from the
- port, and this will benefit LyX in the process of becoming largely
- toolkit independent.</p>
-
+ Work is underway to provide a modern toolkit interface to LyX. Currently no KDE
+ interface exists; Gnome and Qt2 (the toolkit behind KDE 2) interfaces are under
+ development.
