Lyx 2 alpha6 on OSX and Sweave

2010-09-30 Thread Murat Yildizoglu
Hello, I have installed this new alpha and tested a noweb article document. Out of the box, it does not propose me to convert it to PDFLatex, just psd2pdf and dvipdfm, both giving an error message about a java program (htmltolatex). I have though that Lyx2 was supposed to work out of the box for

LyX (LaTeX) vs. ConTeXt
