Hi,
I think Greg's post is key here.
Even if the two users are never editing at the same time, having always the
latest version with all merges applied is reassuring.

time." I think this is because the tech didn't even exist
Hi Kevin,
I tried Gobby. it's as simple as notepad, so for serious programming/writing
it'd feel a bit limited. But the deal breaker is no undo. Yes, you hear that
right. I think Gobby is actually feature-wise worse than in-browser
alternatives.
Best,

Alberto,
I am also using LyX 1.6.7 on Windows, and have no trouble with the spell
checker. Can you provide a bit more information? What installer did you use?
What os (Vista, XP, W7)? Do you know how to start a spell-check, and you get
a message? What exactly? Please explain.

Hi
I have installed Lyx 1.6.7 for windows, and noticed that there is no spell
checker. Downloaded Aspell and reconfigured Lyx. However, I have not been able
to make it work.Everything else works just fine.
Will appreciate your help

While this may well be true in general, the two books I have
collaborated on (my only book experience) I contributed to every
chapter,
I would simply like to say that I think going too far down this road could
lead to a lot of effort, and only a marginal return. I think we do need to
make LyX better, but I don't think it needs to be too multi-purpose. You
know the whole Swiss-Army knife versus a tool that does one thing, but does

Thank you all for your responses. I will just leave it with the comment
that this is a functionality that I would definitely be interested in, if it
were to be incorporated in some future version of lyx.

I would distinguish two kinds of collaborative editing.

simultaneously on a document

the document at any one time BUT others always having live acce

Hi!
I'm using Lyx on a mac (OSX) but am not being able to get the spellchecker
to work.
I've downloaded the latest version of cocoaspell, installed it, went to

In Lyx I did preferences/language settings/spell

While trying to digest the ideas, though, I found myself asking two questions

We use version control (git) + to write papers in the lab. It works fine

Hi,
We've had previous discussions on whether or not it's useful to have some
kind of real-time collaboration in LyX.
The death of wave seemed to reinforce the idea that this is not a killer
feature, and people don't need it. Collaboration using a VCS is sufficient.

No, LaTeX stops at arctan...
If you use it often, just put in your document preamble:

and then you can typeset just
How to type the arccot function?
It seems strange it is not included in the lyx functions list. Isn't a latex
