have just the one suggestion:
Perhaps a future edition might demonstrate the spellchecker in action.

Hi!
I commited a bunch of changes to lyx-cvs 1_0_x:
- Fixed positioning of Math Panel pop-ups. (Asger)
An old-timer -- the problem was that the bitmaps could pop out of the screen.
- Fixed click cursor positioning, so that if you click at the left half of
a letter, the cursor will go to the

The latexconf idea is great. Although it seems like LaTeX already has tons
of parameters, there are clearly a bunch of lengths and texts which are
hard-coded. However, it sounds to me like a major project, which only
overlaps with LyX at the later (easier) parts. And we seem to have only a

I have to agree with Larry on the "emacs-style" thing.
Why not just say "version control for collaborative authoring".
Anyone who knows what version control is doesn't need to be told it's
emacs-style, while anyone who doesn't know has at least a *c
Here is the 1.0.3 version with two point corrections only.
I have also been thinking about the "latexconf" idea, as this weekend I had
to design a class file for out Institute's Reports series. (The proposed
design was so awful that I couldn't keep my mouth shut. No good deed goes
unpunished.)
I believe that this is the algorithm in common use in the so-called
"standard word processors".

Interesting point. :-)
So you could run "remote LaTeX" using custom export (set export LaTeX):
scp $$FName home.domain; ssh home.domain latex $$FName;\
scp home.domain:$$FName.dvi .; xdvi $$FName.dvi
(You'd have to watch the remote process, though, for errors).

A fine piece of work! I hope it becomes *the* reference work for updating

Hi LyXers,
1) when one calls the dialog "Insert->Index Entry" and cancels it via
[Cancel], the index is nevertheless inserted. The same is true for
"Insert->Citation".
2) Btw, both menus and others (eg. the new URL stuff) should have
a "..." appended, as they generate a dialog box.
