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.
Fixes crash introduced in [17e435c4/lyxgit].
editable() is more related to Texted. It is false for closed collapsable insets
Eventually the two methods should be merged.
Imagemagick detects the inut file format based on contents. Therefore it does
not make sense that we prefix the to be converted file name with the extension
(assuming that the file extension matches the imagemagick format name). This
breaks formats where the extension used by LyX does not match the imagemagick
format name.
I thought I would need it to fix bug #9418, but once backwardInset() worked
it turned out that it is not needed. However, since it took me some time to
figure out the correct implementation I do not want to throw the result away.
The concept of rows and cols is no longer unique to mathed.
Each inset decides itself whether it is grid like or not, so we should not
interfere with this in the cursor slice.
If LyX thinks the export was successful but no output file was
produced for preview, then something is wrong (most likely LyX
did not detect an error that occurred during export).
Also clean up some logic.
A PDF is often still produced after a LaTeX error.
If there was an error when exporting a PDF, we now give an error
and the PDF (if it exists), where before we gave the error and
not the PDF. The GUI and command line behaviors are consistent:
in the GUI an error is given and the PDF is viewed; on the
command line, a non-zero exit code is given and a PDF is created.
This also solves what was in my mind an inconsistency: if the user
"updated" a document and there was an error, the resulting
PDF would be shown; but if the user viewed a document and there
was an error, the document would not be shown.
Note that this applies to all output formats, not just PDF.

When scanning the LaTeX log, previously we only looked ahead 10 lines
after a "!" line and if we did not find a line number we did not count
an error. This lead to the problem that templates/ACM-sigplan.lyx was
showing a successful export and the PDF was shown (it is still
created despite the error). Now that the exit code of the latex
command is checked (as of the previous commit), an error is correctly
given, but by parsing the log better with this commit, a more
informative error is given.
Increasing the look-ahead to 15 lines leads to correct parsing of
the ACM-sigplan log. The excerpt in the log file where there are more
than 10 lines in-between the "!" line and the line number is below:
! Undefined control sequence.

Another example is posted here:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/231655/lyx-cannot-output-to-pdflatex-for-a-specific-file
Systemcall::startscript returns the exit code of the LaTeX command
that is run, but the return value was not being checked by
LaTeX::run. Instead, we relied on parsing log files. However, this
parsing is not perfect.
The return value is now checked and if the exit code of the command
is non-zero, an enum value is added to the return and the user is
notified of the error.
At a higher level, if the LaTeX command returns a non-zero exit code,
in the GUI a message such as
"Error while exporting format: PDF (LuaTeX)" will be given instead of
"Successful preview of format: PDF (LuaTeX)".
When run on the commandline, lyx -e lualatex example.lyx
will give "Error: LaTeX failed" and a non-zero exit code
where before it gave a zero exit code.
A real example of the bug this commit fixes is LyX's (as of this commit)
ACM-sigplan.lyx template.
Before this commit:
$ lyx -e pdf2 ACM-sigplan.lyx
[...snip...]
support/Systemcall.cpp (288): Systemcall: 'pdflatex "ACM-sigplan.tex"'
finished with exit code 1
$ echo $?
0
Starting with this commit:
$ mylyx master -e pdf2 ACM-sigplan.lyx
support/Systemcall.cpp (288): Systemcall: 'pdflatex "ACM-sigplan.tex"'
finished with exit code 1
Error: LaTeX failed
----------------------------------------
LaTeX did not run successfully. The command that was run exited with
error.
$ echo $?
1
This was disabled in 2009 in bea0925f but it is now safe.
From Richard:
"I am pretty sure that all the work that Peter Kümmel did with the
InGuiThread classes dealt with this issue."
This commit solves two issues:
(1) A PDF from a previous run could have been the result of a command
that exited with error (e.g. sometimes pdflatex still produces a PDF if
it exits with error). If the "View" button were clicked a second time
without changing the .lyx file, then the checksum of the .tex file would
not have changed so LyX would show the PDF (which was created from the
first run that exited with error), and this time LyX would not report
the error (because the parsing of the logs only happens when the .tex
file is compiled).
(2) A myfile.tex that results in no output does not yield a myfile.pdf.
Thus, Any myfile.pdf in the temporary directory will not be overwritten.
Before this commit, the following scenario was possible: LyX runs
pdflatex which processes myfile.tex and no error is given so LyX opens
myfile.pdf. However, it could have been the scenario that pdflatex did
not exit with error and did not create myfile.pdf, in which case
whichever myfile.pdf is being shown is not correct. To see this bug in
action, start a new document, type "abc", view the PDF, delete "abc",
view the PDF (this correctly gives an error that empty output was
created), view the PDF again (this does not give an error because the
checksum has not changed). The PDF shown will contain "abc".
Note that the above also applies to DVI files and that the fix is
general.
Using fraction of points is a reasonable way to avoid warnings with fussy compilers.
Moreover, this fixes the output of PHRASE_LATEX2E to use the proper form \LaTeXe.
The file format still uses the questionnable form \\LaTeX2e.
The problem came from the fact that Qt associates Interlingua to locale C.
Now, we do not rely anymore on the Qt locale to set the language. I suspect that the problem will still exist if the system locale is ia_IA.
Fixes bug #9267.
The old scheme was:
* multiple insertions are undone by groups of 20
* multiple deletions are undone in one big block
The new scheme is to stop merging undo elements after 2 seconds of elapsed time.
Moreover, the merging of undo elements stops when the cursor has moved. Potentially, this could allow to remove many of the finishUndo() calls.
Fixes bug #9204.
It is better to introduce a dummy blank dir in TEXINPUTS rather than
appending a blank at the end. Even if I have checked that this is not
a problem with MikTeX, some other engine (maybe texlive, but I cannot
check) could not ignore this space and take it as the name of a dir.
In this case, TEXINPUTS would not end with an empty element and the
standard search path would not be inserted there.
LyX did not display the limits of the big math operators defined by
stmaryrd.sty correctly. The reason for this was a missing check in
InsetMathSymbol::metrics(), where it is hardcoded which symbols use display
style limits and which symbols use inline limits. In an ideal world this
information would be contained explicitly in lib/symbols.
This should go to branch as well.
If a mask is missing, the TempFile class appends it to the filename.
This may be a problem with applications relying on the extension,
so explicitly add a mask.
If a compressed svg icon is present, load it instead of a png one.
Also introduce two more sizes (huge and giant icons) that should be
useful when using hires displays, as svg icons automatically scale
to the desired size without loss of quality.
tex2lyx did not use the InsetLayout for the script insets, so it did not know
that it had to use Plain Layout. However, there is still a possible pitfall:
InsetScript uses a hard coded plain layout for the InsetText constructor, so
if anybody would remove ForcePlain 1 and MultiPar false from the InsetLayout
then LyX would still write script insets with plain layout, but tex2lyx would
output standard layout again.
We have some math macros that exist only because LyX can display them easily,
but which require user preamble code. These commands should not appear in
autocompletion, they are only there to make the formulas of users who actually
need thgese symbols and know what to put into the preamble more beautiful.
This avoids invoking the insert space dialog instead of the math version. Thereafter, spaces are correctly inserted inside macro templates.
This is the last part of the fix to #9432.
Additionally, move the code to write to a stream from Cursor to CursorData (so that debugging undo is easier). We loose x_target, but I am not sure it is important.
This is the second part of bug #9432.
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, tex2lyx did not remove the \protect which is output by LyX in
front of \nobreakdash- if needed. Now tex2lyx removes it unconditionally (like
it does elsewhere), because LyX will add it if needed.
The old hyphen replacement code did not convert hyphens if the condition
style.pass_thru || runparams.pass_thru
was met. style.pass_thru got set from inset owner (isPassThru()). Therefore
we have to consider this for the new replacement code as well.
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.
