Hi Bennett,
thanks for making this available -- greatly appreciated and much needed.
I installed it and tried it, but, alas, it doesn't seem to work, not
even after logging out and logging in again.
The way I tested it was to think of a word that so far was not on my
harddisk, type it into a new LyX document, and save that. Using
Spotlight afterwards should have produced a pointer to that file, but
did not. When I exported the file in question as ASCII, Spotlight
immediately found the word in that file.
Any suggestions on where I might have gone wrong? Here is the output
of the mdimport command (in case that is of any help, but it looks
normal to me):
nsdhcp209:~ > mdimport -r /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Library/
Spotlight/LyX-Metadata.mdimporter/
2005-08-30 16:01:53.437 mdimport[4291] Asking server to reimport
files with UTIs: ("dyn.ah62d4rv4gk8y8xc3pa", "org.lyx.lyx",
"dyn.ah62d4rv4ge8028p2")
nsdhcp209:~ >
By the way, the Spotlight looking glass symbol in the upper right
hand corner of the screen did not indicate that Spotlight was
indexing anything -- I don't know whether it is supposed to, but you
seemed to hint at it.
Best wishes, and please let me know if you have an idea how to fix this,
Andreas
