This is a maintenance release which improves upon 1.3.2 in
|
||||
four main areas:
|
||||
* import of old LyX files and export to DocBook have been improved;
|
||||
* many small bugs in the Qt frontend have been fixed;
|
||||
* several languages now benefit from an improved translation of
|
||||
the user interface.
|
||||
* MacOSX users can now compile LyX and enjoy the native MacOSX interface;
|
||||
* several languages now benefit from an improved translation of
|
||||
the user interface amd documentation.
|
||||
|
||||
The complete list of improvements and fixes can be found at the end of
|
||||
this message. There have been bug fixes to the xforms frontend also,
|
||||
but most of these have been made to xforms itself. To benefit you must
|
||||
recompile LyX against xforms 1.0.2 or greater which is currently
|
||||
available only from CVS on the new xforms development site
|
||||
http://www.nongnu.org/xforms/. Note that that is _compile_ aginst the
|
||||
new xforms, not _link_ against a new version of the library, as the
|
||||
work-arounds will otherwise still be in place. Note also that
|
||||
development of xforms is currently accelerating. We hope to have an
|
||||
official xforms release soon that will cure many of the small
|
||||
annoyances from which LyX currently suffers.
|
||||

||||
In case you are wondering what LyX is, here is what
|
||||
http://www.lyx.org/ has to say on the subject:
|
||||
|
||||
LyX is an advanced open source document processor that encourages an
|
||||
approach to writing based on the structure of your documents, not their
|
||||
appearance. LyX lets you concentrate on writing, leaving details of
|
||||
visual layout to the software.
