Best settings for dia created flowcharts in LyX

Hi all, In my personal opinion large diagrams seem to disrupt text flow in LyX (your mileage may vary). So my flowcharts are as small as possible without being unreadable. My flowcharts are created in the dia software (http://www.lysator.liu.se/~alla/dia/). After much experimentation I've com

Great news for Praedor! The wc command counts spaces, so if you simply remove the -c from the wc command at the bottom of this thread, you'll see three numbers output on one line. The first number is the number of lines, and is probably totally meaningless. The second number is the number of w

Characters including spaces? Does any WP count spaces as characters? There certainly would be no tool for this, since LyX is very far from treating spaces as characters. If you aren't worried about the spaces between figures and such, then why be worried about the spaces between words and chara

I take it your problem is the following: though you didn't see how to make your tables using the LyX facilities before, you perhaps now see that it is indeed possible. However, you still have the problem that you need the tables and figures in files separate from the main document. Perhaps this

Thanks. Now I have a new problem (for me) for which I am almost sure there will be no tool for. First, for one of the journals that my paper could be submitted to, a word count goes a long way but for another (PNAS) it seems that they have a total character limit (words, spaces - including sp

Part of my limitations have to do with the need to supply my tables and figures separately as eps files and partly due to my PI having some nit-picky requirements of his own. I will take a look at tgif. I have also been trying out a number of others. Thank you. On Friday 21 September 2001 06
