\include starts a new page/document section. No sense in previewing a complete chapter or its equivalent. \verbatiminput is much too boring to preview (unless you get sick of LyX' screen fonts which could be prettier). \input _might_ for example contain an xfig mixed LaTeX/EPS file. > ps. It's great candy! Thanks! Sorry I did not manage to release preview-latex last week. We are doing our best to make it this week. At the current level of resonance, it will probably take a few releases in succession until all of the platforms for which no alpha testers have volunteered get it right. I doubt this will concern the LaTeX style, however. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
