Overhaul of the tex2lyx manpage
- make it autogenerated - clean up the markup - remove obsolete information - try to update in general Hopefully I did not break the markup... git-svn-id: svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk@28871 a592a061-630c-0410-9148-cb99ea01b6c8

|
||||
The simplest way to use \fBtex2lyx\fR is via the File->Import->LaTeX
|
||||
(plain) menu item in LyX. That runs \fBtex2lyx\fR on the given file
|
||||
and loads the resulting file into LyX. You should try that first, and
|
||||
call it from the command line only if you need to use more complicated
|
||||
options.

Class. By default, when \fBtex2lyx\fR sees a \f(CW\edocumentclass{foo}\fR command, it
|
||||
creates a file of textclass \*(L"foo\*(R" and reads the LyX layout file for that class
|
||||
(something like /usr/local/share/lyx/layouts/foo.layout \s-1OR\s0
|
||||
\fB\s-1HOME\s0\fR/.lyx/layouts/foo.layout). Use \fB\-c\fR to declare a different textclass

(and read a different layout file).

Debug. By default, \fBtex2lyx\fR gives sparse output and deletes the temporary files

which were created during translation. Using the \fB\-d\fR flag will create much

more output (both to stdout and stderr) and leave the temporary files around.

using this option, you can translate more than one file, as long as all files
|

are the same class. The LyX file created by \fBtex2lyx\fR can be included in an

In theory, most of the file will have been translated, and anything that's

untranslatable will be transferred to TeX code (ERT in LyX-speak). In theory, LyX will be

||||
able to read in the file, and to create printed documents from it, because all
|
||||
that untranslated ERT stuff will be passed directly back to LaTeX, which LyX
|
||||
uses as a backend. Unfortunately, reality doesn't always reflect theory. If
|

\fBtex2lyx\fR crashes, or LyX cannot read the generated LyX file, see the \f(CWBUGS\fR section below.

I'm sure you were planning on doing this anyway, but it's particularly

important after translating a LaTeX document. \fBtex2lyx\fR is better
|

at \*(L"macro-translating\*(R" (translating the whole document) than

\*(L"micro-translating\*(R" (translating every little detail). For example, you may see

extra spaces or deleted spaces. Space handling has improved, but it's
