I think I have solved my .fig display problem (remember I wanted to use
the separate .tex/.ps export to be able to use formulas in the drawing
instead of .ps-only export).
To do so I created shell scripts fig2tex, fig2eps and fig2xpm.
[And I think I'd like to add them to lib/scripts, they wont hurt there -
Comments on that?]
Then I added \converters in my .lyx/preferences _and_ removed the fig2dev
entries from lyxrc.default.
I think the latter should not be needed. So what is wrong there?
Do the personal preferences fail to override the global ones?
