Hello,
I use Lyx to create DocBook and have various problems.
The most serious ones are:
- The INFORMALTABLE bug, already reported, applied a workaround cited in
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg12688.html.
- An ANCHOR problem I never saw reported.
jade:/home/patois/home/patois/work/userdoc/userdoc/CCIN2P3repositoryConventions.dbook:439:46:E:
end tag for element "ANCHOR" which is not open
The generated sgml is: <anchor id="sec-documentation" ></anchor>
Correct syntax appears to be simply : <anchor id="sec-documentation" >
without any closing tag.
- Bigger problem is again in the table where I got the following incorrect
generated sgml:
<colspec colname="col0" align="center"/>
<colspec colname="col1" align="center"/>
To compile I had to remove the end slash : <colspec colname="col1"align="center">
But I really dont know how to write a simple workaround in the lyx source.
***
There are also cosmetics problems that are worring me.
I changed from LinuxDoc to DocBook because some on this list claimed it
was no more supported. But the generated output (postscript) I got is very
poor compared to the one I had with LinuxDoc.
Some problems:
- No section numbering by default
-> By manually editing some 'docbook-utils.ds' file I was able to add
that again, but I dont know how to tell lyx to use this file instead
of the standard one.
- URL representation is quite strange (reported as note at the end of the
document), there was by default an inline representation of URLs in
LinuxDoc, and dont know how to change that.
- The Date item is not writen on the output document, I wasnt also able to
found how to put a 'Version' item.
Thanx for any help,
Yannick
PS: Related versions of softwares:
Basicaly RH6.2-intel.

Wrong command line option `--version'. Exiting. <-- should it be added ?
