I do not see the need to go to such dramatization of the situation. You make it sound as if an evil leader did a coup and took fundamental liberties away from The People (unless you are a master of our "no smiley day" and I fell for it). I think that indeed the naked latex export can be very useful to maybe 3% of our users (OK, I made up the number). In this sense, we should probably implement it (not that I am proposing to do it myself...), but does not look like a top priority. However, I think that it should be as raw as it gets: just the LaTeX file. If you want to be on your own you cannot pick this and that inset to generate contents and not others: we would be bound to see someone else complain bitterly that he needs external insets but not include insets (or the opposite). So what I would propose is 2 export options: - just the tex (or just the <foo> if we can make it generic to other formats) - just the tex/foo, but without headers. Comments? JMarc
