"lyx -help" seems pretty fundamental functionality to me... As does any problems in finding the various paths required by LyX. At the moment, these messages can be output in <choose your language> because the location of LyX's locale directory is essentially hard-coded. That's not the case on either the Mac or on Windows. So, let me ask why you think that users on such systems should have these messages output only in English? -- Angus
