Hi all,
I'm also a great fan of outlining serious texts and have also made some
experiences with kdissert (being a fan of MindMaps still much longer
than of any advanced text system).
OTOH I'm using LyX-1.5.3 now for quite a while and am VERY content for
my (restricted) expectations. Using the outlining possibilities also to
some degree.
To answer Abdel's question on the functionality lacking (I just checked
with 1.5.3 official release as of Dec 17th, 2007):
+++ It is already very helpful to be able to move entire paragraphs
using the keyboard when working in the text window.
*** keyboard driven jump between the text window and the table of
contents window . AFAIK this is not yet possible. The other direction
seems to work simply with tab (and to my surprise with shift+tab too).
Right, this should be fixed.
What about shift tab for the lacking jump. Would be similar to other
apps like e.g. thunderbird (to jump between folders panel and messages
panel)
Problems is that shift-tab might be used for editing inside tables and math.
*** keyboard accessibility of the 5 buttons at the lower border of the
toc window.
Those were left out for lack of imagination. But you can of course
define your own bindings in the bind file. We are open to ideas...
This would mean that everything, i.e. writing and outlining could be
done using only the keyboard. IMHO this is by far the most efficient way
to produce texts.
Agreed.
Should I enter enhancement requests into bugzilla?
If they are not already there please do.
Thanks and happy new year to all,
Abdel.
