This file describes what has been done in the preparation of LyX 1.4.3
All comments are welcome.
I'd be glad if some of you could take the time to check it out (or fix
a bug or two if you are feeling adventurous). Let me recall that all
these fixes have been checked into the BRANCH_1_4_X branch, which you
can get with the command
svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_4_X lyx-1.4.x

What's new
==========
** Updates:
- All shell scripts are translated to python so sh.exe is no longer
needed on windows.
- New Czech translation; update Italian localization.
- Updated Czech translation of the Tutorial.
** Bug fixes:
* Document Input/Output
- Fix crash on save (including dataloss) when the backup directory
was invalid or not writeable(bug 2740).
- Fix crash when importing LaTeX files with no text (bug 2667)
- Ignore definition of lyxgreyout environment when re-importing a LyX
generated LaTeX file (part of bug 2420)
- When exporting to LaTeX an external inset with template XFig,
require the color package, since xfig generates LaTeX code with
\color (bug 2716).
- Make sure enough passes are made to update the table of contents
when running latex (bug 2616).
* User Interface:
- Show an error box when failing to update the TeX Information dalog data.
- Handle the Meta keyboard modifier as Alt (Qt only).
- Fix the C-x C-b binding in emacs mode (bug 2747).
* Build/installation:
- Fix 'check' make target for systems which do not have /bin/bash (bug 2524).
- Set CPPFLAGS only if not already set by the user (and ignore CXXFLAGS for
setting CPPFLAGS).
- Handle properly gcc 4.1 in configure.
- Install python files together with precompiled versions.
* Miscellaneous
- Display latex package checking results faster during configuration.
- Log the output of configure.py to a log file configure.log.
- Change the encoding of some python scripts from iso-8859-15 to
iso-8859-1. The former causes problems with embedded python.
