Qt is a big improvement over XForms. Ruurd made a big achievement. If the
little problems can be fixed and a Installshield installer applied, it will
become a Windows application suitable for giving to the technically-
challenged.
The previews themselves are pretty "wow" too, of course! :-)

My sed doesn't seem to understand ",,d"? I changed it to the following,
which seems to work:
FILES=`ls ${BASE}* | sed -e "s,${BASE}.metrics,,g" -e "s,${BASE}[0-9]*.
${GSSUFFIX},,g"`

I've taken another look at it. The trouble seems to be that the type in
sh.exe which is used when lyx calls an external script doesn't understand
symbolic links (which are a kind of weird hack under Cygwin). Strangely
enough, it does understand them when executing commands. The executables of
latex etc were in my path, whereas of pnmcrop only a symbolic link is in my
path. The fix is simply to use the bash.exe provided with cygwin instead of
sh.exe . Ruurd should be able to straighten this out.
Regarding my problem with blocky characters: I have to use a
\preview_scale_factor of 1.8 to make the math exactly as large as the
surrounding text. Do you have any idea why this could be? My zoom is 100 and
my dpi is 86 (I verified with a ruler it is correct).
Is it normal that math bitmaps are one pixel lower than surrounding text?
