I'm running Fedora Core 4 linux with lyx 1.3.6 and the qt front end.
Today I have been re-tracing my steps to make LyX work together with R
to process Sweave documents
(http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg36262.html)
I'm trying to use the menus to insert a converter from NoWeb to LaTex
and the behavior of the GUI is completely erratic. If I choose NoWeb
and LaTeX from the pull downs and click the "new" button, I can t ype in
a program's name, in this case, it is "Rweave $$i". The dialogue does
create a line in the converter list, but it won't remember the command.
If I close the dialogue and re-open it, I try to fill in the missing
command by hitting the "modify" button, and it just creates a copy of
the original NoWeb-LaTeX converter, and it won't save anything I edit.
I can manually edit the file ~/.lyx/preferences to make the converter
known to Lyx. And the Sweave magic does work.
But I can't get there with the LyX GUI
