these binaries indeed work (100%, as predicted) on Win98SE [see below]; I'm reporting failure on Win95, exclusively... sorry! > Only, I could not open the file, because I > have 1.3.3 working, not 1.4 or other (1.3.7cvs)..... :) > > I have also problem with the converter python script. > [...] > I have installed Python 2.4 with the "os" module (os.py) in the lib > folder. > So, what goes wrong? > You need an additional batch file in the LyX2LyX directory to make python happy. See instructions on the LyXWin wiki page... Beware: Win98 is not %* aware; you need to state the usual set of variables, like %1 %2 ... In a nutshell, you need a lyx2lyx.bat file in /Resources/lyx/lyx2lyx, with a single line: <pathto>python <pathtolyx2lyx>/lyx2lyx %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 Moreover: you need the new lyx2lyx files, distributed with tex2lyx, in the lyx2lyx directory; the 1.3.3 distribution is tuned to older lyx formats, and won't convert the output from tex2lyx... > I could not found workaround for my lyx crash (IE6.0.2600+LyX > 1.3.7cvs). > It is just exits during textclass.lst. > I've reported this failure before; if I undertand Angus's approach, he's tackling down the Get-Cetera failures first; then we'll see if he can make LyX GUI run, at least for Win98...
