-New features

-============
+==========
 
-** Qt frontend

-The advent of the Qt frontend does not mean that the historical xforms

-Power LaTeX users can still input obtuse "glue lengths", but the widgets are 
-highlighted in red if this input is invalid or incomplete. This visual 
-feedback makes it easy to see why LyX won't allow you to Apply your changes.
 
-** Gnome frontend
+- Most of the documentation has been updated for the current version

+  release, please contact lyx-docs@lists.lyx.org

-** Instant preview
+- fix mathed bug where curly brackets in, e.g. {a^b}^c, would get lost
+  and cause TeX errors
 
-preview-latex is an emacs package for LaTeX that allows "instant previews"
+- fix bug where strange symbols were displayed instead of math symbols
-of LaTeX code, so you can immediately see the visual rendering of the 
+  [Qt only]
-LaTeX in the document. Its project home page can be found at 
-http://sourceforge.net/projects/preview-latex. With the help of David
-Kastrup, the author, LyX 1.3.0 can harness this functionality to
-allow instant previews in the LyX window of math equations and
-figures. This feature can be immensely useful, ensuring that the
-rendering of your equation will look right in the final output. The
-preview is only displayed (if enabled) when you're not editing the
-actual equation, so it's unobtrusive too.
 
-** Math editor
+- fix bug where "lyx -e" would refuse to work [bug #788, Qt only]
 
-There have been a few visible and some not-so-visible changes. On the
+- delete lyxserver pipes on exit [bug #865, Qt only]
-visible side we have better visual feedback regarding the structure of
-a formula, showing the nesting by small purple decorations in the
-formula itself and revealing the names of the nesting levels in the
-minibuffer. There is now native support for symbols from the wasy
-package containing e.g. the zodiac symbols. New also is the internal
-structure of font changes which are now proper "insets", just like 
-anything else from a square root to an array. This not only simplifies
-the code greatly but also allows the same editing tricks as for the
-"regular" math. However, it was not possible to tweak the visible
-behaviour to mimic 1.2 in all cases, so this might take some time to
-get accustomed to. On the pro side, the new structure allowed
-support for LaTeX's \mbox and \fbox to be implemented and general
-"switching back to text mode within math", so a lot of "evil red text"
-trickery is not needed anymore. The most visible changes are the following:
 
-- Pressing { and } will insert LaTeX's \{ and \} which show up as { }
+- add floats definition to the LLNCS class [bug #923]
-  in the printout. To get LaTeX's {} nesting, you need to type \{.
 
-- Fonts changes now really nest. Repeated application of a font change
+- fix a bug where the DVI file was not updated due to an old format
-  will result in nested font changes!  To remove a font change without
+  .dep file (this happened only when use_tempdir was set to false)
-  removing the "contents", it is now possible to "pull the argument"
-  like in other insets, i.e. put the cursor in the first position of
-  the inset and press 'backspace'.
 
-** Reading old files
+- graphics that have been set to not display in LyX are no longer
+  converted [bug #920]
 
-LyX now has a new script lyx2lyx which enables the reading of any file
+- fix converters for tgif format
-produced by LyX versions as old as 0.12. Work is in progress on files 
-created with LyX 0.10 (LyX 1.4 time-line) and still older files are 
-in the forge. Basically if lyx wrote it LyX will read it. :-)
 
-There is also a strong demand to be able to read files produced by
+- fix bug where preview snippets would most of the time be processed twice
-_newer_ versions of LyX. While lyx2lyx has the infrastructure in place
-to do such things, the filters to `downgrade' LyX files (from 1.3.0 to
-1.2.x, for example) have not yet been written.
 
-** Miscellaneous changes
+- prevent a crash when generating previews if the user is not using a
+  tmp directory
 
-- LyX now automatically uses TeX fonts for screen rendering of math
+- fix possible crash on exit when there are many previews
