Hi, I did not use lyx for some time and just got version 1.2.2 installed to work on a quite large german report.
I have some trouble to get started and maybe somebody can help me out: ================================================================ 1. extra keyboard mapping I used to load a very simple extra german.kmap file: ---------------------------------------------------- \kmod \" umlaut aAuUoO # umlaut is on \" \kxmod umlaut s ß # umlaut s is sz ---------------------------------------------------- It just allows me to type "+u to get the german ü. The problem is, that I just can not activate the german.kmap mapping. I installed the file in ~/.lyx/kbd and registered the file in the preference dialog for as first and sedonc keyboard map file. But How to activate the kmap ? M-k+1 or M-k+1 does not work. Is there any other way to get the same result ("+u = ü) ================================================================= 2. german spell checking Lyx now support various spellchecking programmes. (ispell/aspell/pspell) What are the differences? Can I spellcheck the text while typing? Is there a spellcheck for the "new german spelling" What is the "best" spellchecker/programm for "technical/IT" german ? Thanks Johannes -- Johannes Behr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Computer Graphics Center
