Thus, something like:

lyx -batch -x "buffer-print printer default dvips" myfile.lyx
|

will cause LyX to print myfile.lyx to the default printer, using

dvips and the default print settings (which, of course, have to have

We have introduced a new flag to decide whether or not a given "document"
|
|
||||||
format shall be listed in the File > Export menu. This was necessary since
|
|
||||||
this menu got too large. If the flag "menu=export" is not explicitly set,
|
|
||||||
the formats are not included in the menu. This means that you might need
|
|
||||||
to click "Show in export menu" in Preferences > File Formats for your
|
|
||||||
customized file formats if you want them to appear in the menu.
|
|
||||||
Customized formats imported from a previous configuration are handled
|
|
||||||
by the prefs2prefs script, and should appear in the menu as before.
|
|
||||||
Note, though, that you still can export to any possible format via
|
|
||||||
File > Export > More Formats and Options ...

something close to the previous default, use:

particularly applies to spell checking and the thesaurus.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1.) SPELLCHECKING:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Direct support for ispell and hspell has been dropped. However, ispell
|
|
||||||
and hspell are still accessible via the enchant wrapper (see below).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Support for the aspell command line program has been dropped. Note that
|
|
||||||
the aspell library (aspell 0.60.x) is still supported.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* As well as the aspell library, LyX now also supports hunspell (the spell
|
|
||||||
checker used by OpenOffice and Firefox) and enchant, a wrapper that
|
|
||||||
provides automatic access to many spell checking libraries (ispell,
|
|
||||||
aspell, hspell, hunspell, etc.).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* On Mac OSX, Apple's Spell Server is preconfigured as the "native" spell
|
|
||||||
checker.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
LyX 2.0 is configured for any and all of these three possibilities,
|
|
||||||
given that the various libraries are installed on the machine where LyX is
|
|
||||||
configured. The actual spell checker can be selected in Tools > Preferences.
|
|
||||||
Packagers are advised to pre-select whatever is most common on their
|
|
||||||
platform/distribution.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
2.) THESAURUS:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* Support for the aiksaurus library has been dropped in favour of the
|
|
||||||
MyThes thesaurus library (the thesaurus library used by OpenOffice).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* LyX ships the MyThes library itself, so unlike in LyX 1.6.x, no extra
|
|
||||||
thesaurus library needs to be installed. However, LyX does not ship any
|
|
||||||
thesaurus dictionaries, and those do have to be installed separately.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
* The OpenOffice thesaurus dictionaries can be used, but the path to those
|
|
||||||
dictionaries needs to be set in Tools > Preferences. Please refer to the
|
|
||||||
UserGuide, sec. 6.14, for further instructions.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Packagers are advised to preset the thesaurus for their distribution/
|
|
||||||
platform. Packagers of installation bundles (on Windows and the Mac)
|
|
||||||
are advised to provide automatic installation of thesaurus dictionaries
|
|
||||||
in the installation process (analoguous to the spellchecker installation).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
3.) LILYPOND:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
There is now direct support for Lilypond-book. Note that LyX requires at
|
|
||||||
least version 2.14 for proper work.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
4.) INSTANT PREVIEW:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Make sure that dv2dt (often part of LaTeX distributions) is installed
|
|
||||||
on your system. Instant preview wil be disabled if dv2dt is not found.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
5.) LuaTeX support
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
For proper LuaTeX support you need to have at least TeXLive 2010.

Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 2.0.x
|
Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 2.1.x
|
||||||
-------------------------------------------------------
|
-------------------------------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The typeset of your documents with non-english language can slightly
|
|
||||||
change in case of math environments and floats (this is usually the case
|
|
||||||
with certain modules which provide specific environments like AMS ones
|
|
||||||
or provide specific floats like the linguistic one).
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
LyX now uses its own translation machinery which will automatically provide
|
|
||||||
localization strings used so far only in GUI. The status of translation to
|
|
||||||
your language can be seen in lib/layouttranslation file. This is not meant as
|
|
||||||
a babel replacement (still used), but rather extension for strings not
|
|
||||||
translated by babel at all.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- The syntax of the languages file has been changed. If you use a modified
|
|
||||||
languages file, you will need to adapt it to the new syntax, as LyX 2.0
|
|
||||||
is not able to read old languages file anymore.
|
|
||||||
Please refer to the beginning of the languages file for an explanation
|
|
||||||
of the new syntax.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- There has been a large change in how Flex insets are named. Previously,
|
|
||||||
they tended to have names like "CharStyle:Noun". Now, they just have
|
|
||||||
names like "Flex:Noun" (where the "Flex" prefix is now required). When
|
|
||||||
LyX 2.0 reads older files, it silently converts the old-style names
|
|
||||||
to new-style names; this direction works almost perfectly. The one place
|
|
||||||
it does not work is with CopyStyle declarations, IF your old InsetLayout
|
|
||||||
was NOT named "CharStyle:..." or "Custom:..." or "Element:...", but, say,
|
|
||||||
just "MyInset". In that case, "InsetLayout MyInset" will be changed to
|
|
||||||
"InsetLayout Flex:MyInset", but "CopyStyle MyInset" will be left as is.
|
|
||||||
Users will need to make that kind of change manually. The best way to do
|
|
||||||
this is to use the layout2layout.py script, which gets installed in
|
|
||||||
$LYXDIR/scripts/layout2layout.py, to convert your custom layout files to
|
|
||||||
the new format, and then check them for correctness.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
LyX will also silently revert new-style names to old-style names when
|
|
||||||
exporting to 1.6.x format, but only for the pre-defined LyX insets. This
|
|
||||||
means that user-defined flex insets will not be properly reverted. To solve
|
|
||||||
this problem, you can modify the file $LYXDIR/lyx2lyx/lyx_2_0.py. In that
|
|
||||||
file, you will find the following:
|
|
||||||
flex_insets = {
|
|
||||||
"Alert" : "CharStyle:Alert",
|
|
||||||
"Code" : "CharStyle:Code",
|
|
||||||
"Concepts" : "CharStyle:Concepts",
|
|
||||||
"E-Mail" : "CharStyle:E-Mail",
|
|
||||||
"Emph" : "CharStyle:Emph",
|
|
||||||
"Expression" : "CharStyle:Expression",
|
|
||||||
"Initial" : "CharStyle:Initial",
|
|
||||||
"Institute" : "CharStyle:Institute",
|
|
||||||
"Meaning" : "CharStyle:Meaning",
|
|
||||||
"Noun" : "CharStyle:Noun",
|
|
||||||
"Strong" : "CharStyle:Strong",
|
|
||||||
"Structure" : "CharStyle:Structure",
|
|
||||||
"ArticleMode" : "Custom:ArticleMode",
|
|
||||||
"Endnote" : "Custom:Endnote",
|
|
||||||
"Glosse" : "Custom:Glosse",
|
|
||||||
"PresentationMode" : "Custom:PresentationMode",
|
|
||||||
"Tri-Glosse" : "Custom:Tri-Glosse"
|
|
||||||
}
|
|
||||||
This is a map from new-style names (minux "Flex") to old-style names (and
|
|
||||||
there is a similar for DocBook elements). To get a user-defined CharStyle
|
|
||||||
to revert properly, it simply needs to be added to this list.
|
|
||||||

||||||

|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
