Hi again,
I am trying to install a new pdfscreen package under LaTeX. What I did was: 1. Get the software from CTAN or original source 2. Untar under one directory the pdfscreen-1.5.tar.gz 3. Create a directory under /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/ called pdfscreen and copy there pdfscreen.sty 4. Run texhash as root 5. How to create .layout file for Lyx ? Under my home directory I ave nothing . ls -lrt layouts/ total 0 Do I need to create a .lyx file under /usr/share/lyx/templates/ where I have lots of lyx template files ? slides.lyx revtex.lyx revtex4.lyx linuxdoctemplate.lyx letter.lyx latex8.lyx kluwer.lyx iletter.lyx IEEEtran.lyx hollywood.lyx g-brief-en.lyx g-brief-de.lyx docbook_template.lyx dinbrief.lyx aastex.lyx aa.lyx stefan On Wed, 1 May 2002, Robin Turner wrote: > On Wednesday 01 May 2002 19:24, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > thanks guys.
