.layout/.module files are OS agnostic: there is no special Linux or
Mac or Windows version of them. So you can copy them from one
computer
to another so long as you put them in the right place. But your
texmf
folder is *not* the right place for .layout/.module files;
YES, that was it! I put it directly into the …/ly 1.6-folder! now
it works!
On my other computer it really have this folder, which I do not
have here.
Is this folder used for LaTex? That´s the way it looks like:
Yes -- everything under texmf is for TeX/BibTeX/LaTeX.
I suspect what confused you was the presence of the "lyx" folder in
~/Library/texmf/latex. That is not your lyx user's directory (which is
at ~/Library/Application Support/LyX-1.6) but is rather a directory
the LyX Installer creates for its own latex styles and classes. You
should not put anything in that directory, as it may get overwritten
by future versions of the installer.
Hmmm, thanks again. The confusing point for me is, that I did not have
that texmf- folder (~/Library/texmf) on my computer, until I created
it by myself. Is this the correct way? I just copied it from the other
computer, and everything seems to work fine.
