Subject: [announce] fourth release of the LyXWinInstaller


Hello LyXers,

with the help from many people I'm now able to present the new version 0.4 of the LyX installer for Windows.

I switched to LyX's new LaTeX -> LyX converter "tex2lyx". In contrary to the old "reLyX" tex2lyx is maintained by the LyX-developers. tex2lyx is currently not marked as "stable" but it is in most cases better than reLyX. tex2lyx is invoked when you use LyX's menu
File -> Import -> LaTeX


I tested version 4, small and network, with the Texlive2005, win32 latex distro.
Everything seemed to work and it found C:\Texlive2005\bin\win32; and added
it to the Lyx Path prefix.

I tested tex2lyx on sample.tex which has the author's picture which it displayed. It did not display the pdf test files. "error converting to loadable format" and
something about "No information for converting pdf to eps" I saw ImageMagick
in both Paths (prefix). I tried adding C:\Texlive2005\bin\win32; to the Windows Path and it didn't seem to help any, I imagine this is a problem with tex2lyx, not
the installer. The GUI looks a bit spiffier, new icons with functions?

Best regards,
Stephen
