Isn't KLyX esssentially dead? I would look at the Lyx homepage (www.lyx.org);
I seem to recall that Klyx is more or less abandoned, and you will get far

Would it not be as simple as looping over what is in
/usr/lib/.../applnk and checking to see if there is an override in

The applnk stuff will be handled by /etc/menu-methods/kdebase and
KDE (kbuildsycoca). Is that correct?

hout paying a swap time penalty... it works quite well
for basic tasks. Of course, you disable anything with `animate' or
`hover' in it, and don't expect stuff that requires a lot of number

Netscape, but converting XML to HTML then rendering is painful because
it happens at the wrong time ;-).
