What's new in LyX 2.0.3
What's new in LyX 2.0.4
=======================
There have been several more updates to LyX's Sweave support. Work on this
is expected to continue through the 2.0.x series.
Most of the improvements in 2.0.4 are bug fixes, some of them important. In
particular, we have fixed several crashes. The main outstanding problem is
the inability to cancel the background export process. Some improvement has
been made here, by updating the timeout mechanism, but more needs to be done,
and hopefully will be done for 2.0.5.
LyX 2.0.3 still requires a python 2 interpreter, but steps have been taken
to avoid problems on systems where python 3 is the default python interpreter.
A python 2 interpreter is now automatically detected and used. Additionally,
byte-compiled python files changed their installation target. Distribution
maintainers are encouraged to verify their patch sets.
There have again been several updates to the tex2lyx conversion script. Not
as many as with 2.0.2, but quite a few.
There have been several updates to LyX's XHTML export routines. Work on this
will continue for 2.0.5.

Society of America (JASA).

as "python -tt", which is the way it is done internally.
- Output unicode glyph MICRO SIGN upright in mathed (bug 8153).
- Allow redirecting stderr in converters (other than stdout).
- Remove wrong support for unicode glyph HYPHENATION POINT (bug 8153).

- Slightly reduced space around inset buttons, to make it clearer when
there is a real space there (bug 7256).
- New command for forward search with SumatraPDF without the need of an
external DDE program (requires SumatraPDF version 1.9 or higher).
- Let inset-toggle work for very large documents (bug 7945).
- When a command takes too long to complete, ask the user for what to do
instead of automatically stopping it after a timeout interval (bug 8032).
- Disable spell checker dialog for empty documents (bug 5585).
- Recognize geany, leafpad and mousepad as viewers (bug #8021).
- Display some commands from mathtools.sty natively (bug 7949).
- Improved example and layout file for Seminar slide documents (bug 7624).
- Add the directory /usr/share/myspell as default location for dictionary
lookup of hunspell spell checker backend (a common location on linux).

to avoid the need for a restart. This is related to bug 7884.
- We now use the display string as a tooltip in the Outliner, if no
other tooltip is given.
