Especially after the change to use semantic linefeeds (7b23c76b),
the diffs are large and it's hard to figure out what diff is the
result of the linefeed change and which diff is the result of an
edit.
By updating the docs, it will make the edits easier to understand
from the diff.
This commit used the LyX binary to write the new .lyx files since
lyx2lyx does not apply semantic linefeeds.
I used the following command:
./development/tools/updatedocs.py [path to 'lyx' binary]
A few documents were not updated (e.g., the command sequence used
failed because a dialog about a missing dependency was shown).
I did not update Additional.lyx for any language since it is
undergoing changes. I also didn't change anything in doc/fr since JP
is working on some of those. I also didn't change doc/ru since it
appears Yuriy already updated those.
A Note inset contained two example files. The linguistics example
file caused terminal messages like
step: Counter does not exist: examplei
An alternative to removing the example file would be to add the
module, but it is not clear we want example files in the merged
file anyway.
Although the fix affects only a content of a LyX note, it is
still surprising to get a dialog-window demanding creation
a new document if trying to edit the subdocument.
Since \output_changes is written again at the original position, we need to
fix those files that have been updated using the intermediate version.
The update was done by running development/tools/updatedocs.py <lyxexe> where
<lyxexe> was the path to an up to date LyX binary. All files that did contain
additional changes were reverted:
lib/doc/LFUNs.lyx
lib/doc/UserGuide.lyx
lib/doc/Shortcuts.lyx
lib/examples/de/beamer.lyx
The \SpecialChar changes are fine, these files have never been saved by LyX
after the update to 483.
