The math parser could not handle multicolumn grids. This is a problem because
there is no true ERT in math (everything is parsed).
Now multicolumn cells are parsed correctly. The display is also somewhat OK,
but apart from that any multicolumn related UI is missing. Since the file
format change is now done the UI can be added at any later point. The most
important part of bug 396 is now fixed: tex2lyx does not create invalid .lyx
files anymore for formulas containing \multicolumn.
I updated the tex2lyx test cases that produce correct output. tex2lyx does
still produce invalid output for the test cases which are not updated because
of the previous format change.
Revert "tex2lyx testfiles: update to latest fileformat"
This reverts commit afdfc3cf43.
The tex2lyx test vrefernces must be produced by tex2lyx, otherwise the tests
would still fail.
This is the rersult of a discussion on the list. Now all special characters
have meaningful names, and it is clear that the LyX file syntax is not LaTeX.
Previously, LyX did replace some words with typeset logos, and there was no
way to prvent this except putting them, in ERT (bug #4752). Now we have
special insets for these words, and standard text is left alone.
Previously, consecutive dashes in .lyx files were combined to endash and emdash
in some cases, and in other cases they were output as is. This made the code
complicated, and resulted in inconsitencies ((bug #3647).
Now, a dash in a .lyx file is always a dash in the output, for all flavours.
The special handling is moved to the input side, so that you still get an
endash if you type two hyphens. If needed, this can be changed or made
customizable without the need to update the file format again. Many thanks
for the fruitful mailing list dicsussion, which contributed significantly to
the final version.
This is a follow-up of bug #8967. The implementation is self-explaining, the
only part which needs a comment is lyx2lyx: Since a 100% correct solution is
not possible, it has been decided not to switch amsmath off in the forward
conversion if no other ams command than \smash[t] and \smash[b] is used, but
to consider it a bug that older versions do not load amsmath automatically for
these commands. In the backward direction it is easy to keep the document
compilable, so just do that.
LyX, lyx2lyx and tex2lyx produce now all the same version indicator consisting
only of the major and minor version. It is not decided yet whether future
development versions will add a -dev suffix, but for 2.1.0 this change fixes
the inconsistencies.
In roundtrip mode, tex2lyx produces documents with extension lyx.lyx, so that
the original files are not overwritten on re-export. This was not done for
included documents which were converted, and this broke 'make dist'.
These should be used if any new style needs to be introduced in the stable
2.1 series: If the ForceLocal flag of the style is set, it will always be
written to the document header, so that even older 2.1 versions can read
and correctly output the document.
Actually, the test case showed several problems:
- ERT insets did use layout "Standard", not "Plain Layout"
- The font scale was read correctly, but tex2lyx claimed that it did ignore
the option "scaled=0.95"
- If a third argument of the CJK environment was given, it caused the whole
environment to be put in ERT with a broken encoding. This is now fixed for
the bug test case by using the \font_cjk header variable, but the encoding
problem still exists for unsupported encodings. I'll file a separate bug
for that.
- The CJKutf8 package was not handled in the preamble parsing. Therefore the
chinese comment in the preamble was read with a wrong encoding, and guessing
the document language did not work.
The new file CJKutf8.tex was created by copying and modifying CJK.tex, but
unfortunately it is impossible to tell git to inherit the history of CJK.tex
for the new file (search the web for git svn copy if you want to know details).
