And the tex2lyx package doesn't need to bundle lyx2lyx either.
But the newest tex2lyx produces file format 243, and LyX 1.3.6 can only read 242. So the instructions on the wiki page should be modified: "You may have to replace LyX.py and lyx_1_4.py of LyX 1.3.6 with the versions from here: http://www.lyx.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/lyx-devel/lib/lyx2lyx/ " Jean-Pierre, it would be nice if you could do that and maaybe add some more details. All files of lyx2lyx except lyx2lyx itself can be replaced with their 1.4 counterpart without problems. > I wonder... Can tex2lyx read 1.3.6's textclass files?
