Ok, Thanks a lot, it works fine now. But I have only one more question: when I do "INSERT->FILE->EXTERNAL MATERIAL", then "BROWSE" and then I put the name of a file "foo_bar.obj" that does not exist (for example a new drawing that I want to do with tgif), and then I do "EDIT" to begin the drawing, LyX says: "File does not exist: ...". How can I change this behaviour? Indeed, only a "touch foo_bar.obj" is necessary to make it work: LyX could accept a non-existing file, passing the filename to tgif that would generate this new file. I have dropped an eye to ./src/insets/ExternalTemplate.C, but it is not easy to enter the code for somebody that has never worked on LyX. > Do you plan to extend it to support special LaTeX commands in the tgif file > (similar to the xfig template)?
