This request is based on experiences with trying to send LaTeX files generated by LyX to other "pure" LaTeX users and a conference that required a single LaTeX file which had everything in it.. So the request is to have LyX convert the LyX document to a .tex file which would have the .eps figures, .bbl file for bibliography and any other non-standard .sty files (these may have to be user-specified) included in the .tex file using the filecontents environment. This way, it is possible to just send the single .tex file to any other LaTeX user and he/she can run LaTeX on it and the figures, bibliography and sty files will be generated on the fly.. would this be hard to implement? I'm guessing some shell scripting may also be able to achieve the same...
Thanks, nirmal
