Hi,
I just upgraded from lyx 1.3.5 to 1.3.6 on a Windows XP, and all the
keyboard shortcuts (CTRL-D for view DVI, etc..) are gone! (unknown
function).
Where might I get these back? (what file have I lost somehow?)
Thanks
I reinstalled it, all is there, but nonetheless it shouldn't have been this
way.

Is there a reason the lyx editor inserts extra space (a blank row) before
and after equations? You can then stand at the end of the equation and press
DEL to delete this extra space, or backspace from the beginning of the
equation line.
Is there a typographical reason for this?
You don't really need lots of ERT's for simple stuff.
I as well use "notitlepage" for the document, and make everything myself via
large fonts, vfills and hfills from within lyx. It comes out fine.

How about taking the .bbl file out of the lyx temp directory? Or do the page
numbers need to be the same as well?
The two lyx's don't talk to each other, i.e. you cannot copy and paste
between them, only via "external selection". Can that some how be achieved?
A useful feature would be the xemacs style divider into two parts either
vertically or horizontally.
