thanks angus! lyx builds nicely after applying the patch. i can enable "track changes" upon starting lyx, however, an old problem is reoccuring preventing me from testing further.
its been discussed at the list previously, but i never found the solution: http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg40165.html ill upload the patch and update the wiki when this is solved and i get a change to do some throrough testing of "track changes". martin On 25/07/05, Angus Leeming <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Martin A.
