Thanks to Enrico for doing the actual work (my fontforge omits the
TtInstrs...EndTTInstrs blocks for some reason I do not understand).
I did only check that the only difference between the old and new .ttf is the
changed position of the bracketleftbigg glyph. This does finally fix bug 6115.
Generating a ttf from cmex10.sfd would fix bug 6115, but unfortunately I am
unable to export a ttf with the same settings as the existing one, so this has
still to be done.
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.
Increment LyX format to 504.
With this new parameter, the user can indicate that some other parameters that
are frequently switched must not be recorded in the file (as if they were a
setting specific to the user or transient, rather than a document setting). This
will play nicer with version control systems.
See the discussion, e.g.:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.editors.lyx.devel/157824/focus=157993 (third
solution mentioned)
TODO:
* The interface remains to be set up. We cannot change this setting from LyX
for now.
* If save_transient_properties is false, we should read the user setting as a
per-user-per-document (session) setting (e.g. like the cursor position).
* Once the above is done, we can treat \justification the same way (but it would
be even better if \justification was moved to lyxrc).
