Great! I was starting to doubt my sanity. I've applied your patch. > I can now run lyx and get output. The only problem is that the > lyx_tmpxxxx directory is not getting removed (even though there is > nothing in the directories). Is the code to do so getting invoked? Ie, do you get an error message saying that LyX tried and failed to remove the temp directory? Now that you've confirmed that LyX 1.4.x is behaving correctly, modulo this temp dir clean-up, I have a list of patches that I'd like to apply to the 1.3.x tree. These are essentially the same as the patches that have gone into the 1.4.x tree, so it would be good to test that all is well behaved after they've been applied to the LyX 1.3.x tree. Do you run LyX 1.3.x on Cygwin so that you can check that it too is behaving correctly after I've applied them? -- Angus
