Maybe is it time for me to send an update on what happens on the 1.3.4 front. Contrary to the previous ones, this will contain actual new features, as well as a largely cleaned up l10n.
Things remaining to do include: - apply the patch allowing to find .mo files after moving LyX around - a small fix in g-brief2-de.lyx (Michael will do it this week end) - fix the german User Guide (work is on the way) - decide what to do with the OSX LyX.app bundle skeleton: it is small enough to go in the distribution, but it contains binary files, so I am not sure I want it in cvs. Moreover, it will contains our ttf fonts too - I have to double check that the makepsres fiasco is actually fixed - of course, any other fix you would like to see included JMarc PS: corrections on the language are of course welcome.
-*- text -*- This file describes what has been done in the preparation of LyX 1.3.4 All comments are welcome. You can find a list of bugs pending for 1.3.4 at URL http://bugzilla.lyx.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&&target_milestone=1.3.4 I'd be glad if some of you could take the time to check it out (or fix a bug or two if you are feeling adventurous). Let me recall that all these fixes have been checked in the branch BRANCH_1_3_X, which you can get with the command cvs checkout -d lyx-1_3_x -r BRANCH_1_3_X lyx-devel JMarc [In this list, I try to group things by topics, and in decreasing importance order. This is of course subjective...] What's new ========== ** Updates - it is now possible to open documents which use a textclass for which no LaTeX support is installed. The documents can be normally edited, but they can of course not be previewed or printed. Note that the format of the file .lyx/textclasses.lst has changed as a consequence and it is therefore not possible to use LyX 1.3.4 and an earlier version with the same .lyx/ directory. - add support for drag-n-drop opening of lyx files [Qt only] - add support for intelligent scrolling with the mouse cursor [Qt only] - improvements in LyX/Mac: support for opening files with LyX in finder, the LyX.app bundle can now be moved around and contains its own fonts (for math equations) - add support for \boldsymbol in math editor - add support for g-brief2 textclass - update basque, danish, finnish, french, german, italian, nynorsk, romanian, spanish and slovenian interface localizations - remove localization for the following languages, since they were too incomplete to be useful: bulgarian, catalan, czech, hebrew, hungarian, portuguese, swedish, turkish, walloon ** Bug fixes - fix crash when saving file containing a table (only with some compilers) [Bug #1415] - fix a crash in the math editor when selecting up/down close to subscript insets - enable the file dialog to open files with non-latin filenames [Qt only] - allow to use some paper sizes (A3, B3, B4, and custom) without custom margins [Qt problem only]. - fix bug where changing the height unit in the graphics dialog did not activate the ok/apply buttons [bug #1469, Qt only]. - fix the language of the russian table of contents of the documentation - fix installation problem when the program makepsres does not exist - remove non-ascii characters from translatable strings. This simplifies the work of translators - output useful info on receipt of LFUN_GETLAYOUT. - add debug output if unable to open an ofstream to output the graphics conversion script. - add debug output if unable to open preferences.xform for read/write. - add a couple of forgotten MacOSX-related files - a better fix for badly placed math symbols with LyX/Mac - compilation fixes for MacOSX - fix problems with non-GNU make program
