- the installer does nw the job of replacing the magyar.ldf with the fixed version [http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Hungarian]
- install the Mongolian hyphenation pattern to MiKTeX
- update eLyXer
- update to new MiKTeX installer that fixes a bug with updating Packages
- don't ship cbgreek because it is so huge that its download would last 10 minutes or more
- the installer will now recognize an already installed 64bit MiKTeX
- the installer will still install 32bit MiKTeX for new installations because biblatex does not yet work with 64bit MiKTeX
LyX 2.0.x supports currently 147 LaTeX-packages. When LyX is first installed on a PC it took therefore about 10 minutes to install all supported and required packages. With the new installation method the installation speed only depends on the Internet speed and lasts with an average bandwidth now only 3.5 minutes.
(chkconfig.ltx asks LaTeX for each package separately and after each package installation the file name database of LaTeX was rebuild. And that cost a lot of time/CPU power)
LaTeX.nsh:
- fix a MiKTeX configuration Problem on 64bit Windows issue discovered in #8417
- don't overwrite MiKTeX's package repository the user might have set purposely
- remove some unused code and simplify some code
- update to JabRef 2.9.2
- LaTeX.nsh: fixe http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Download
- settings.nsh: adapt path so that one needs to adapt less when using the installer source zip file
- add a readme how to build the installer
- LaTeX.nsh: assure that if MiKTeX is installed for all users also the missing packages will be installed during the configuration for all users
- configure.nsh: run configure.py twice to assure that really all missing packages are checked/installed
- LaTeX.nsh: fix bug that installer stopped working if LyX was installed the first time on a computer
- init.nsh:
- fix failing installation of Slovakian spellcheck dictionary
- expand list of available dictionaries as requested by users
- dictionaries.nsh: prevent case that the installer could run an infinite loop if the installation of dictionaries was interrupted
- settings.nsh: use a HTTP repository for MiKTeX instead of FTP because many companies deny FTP access by default in their firewalls
This is already done by the program pdfview every time it is called. This additionally fixes the bug that viewing PDF files could fail if Acrobat was not the default PDF viewer of the system while LyX was installed, but became later the default PDF viewer.
- to be able to support Adobe Reader/Acrobat XI I had to use new binaries for opening/closing PDFs. That way I found the solution for a long standing and super annoying PDF viewing bug (not 100% perfect but works for more than 95% of the cases, while formerly the view failed for all cases where LaTeX run more than once when updating a PDF view)
- avoid doubled semicolon in LaTeX editor path list
- correct path to the JabRef installation folder in LyX's PATH
- updated to JabRef 2.8.1

- fix uninstallation of Metafile2EPS pinter
- fix un/installation of JabRef if the bundle version is executed without admin privileges
- some whitespace fixes
- dictionaries.nsh: code documentation and simplification
- lyx.nsi: comment out currently unused code
- init.nsh: some corrections and fix bug that info that JabRef and MiKTeX were installed together with LyX was deleted before the uninstaller was really run
- LaTeX.nsh: documentation and fix a bug (for an unknown reason SHCTX can be used to read and delte but not to write in the registry)
- gui.nsh: enable descriptions
- detection: move dictionary code to dictionaries
- detection.nsh:
- fixed detection of the LaTeX source file editors
- removed support for obsolete LaTeX source file editors
- init.nsh:
- don't allow to install an older LyX version over a newer one
- support dictionaries for new languages that will be supported by LyX 2.1
- remove registry entries of current LyX version when installing a newer version over it
- remove the error-prone method of finding dictionaries by renaming some
- add new dictionaries for future LyX 2.1 (more to come)
- update and correct some dictionary sizes
- fix detection of the possible 64bit programs jedit, Gimp, GhostScript and GSview
- remove detection of old Vim version
It is possible to install a newer lyX over an existing older LyX installation, but we cannot allow to install over the same lyX version. Therefore output the version number if this error message is shown
- settings.nsh: update to LyX 2.0.5
- thesaurus.nsh:
- don't download already existing dictionaries when installing over an existing LyX installation
- the list of available dictionaries is 120
- detection:
- detect existing dictionaries
- fix detection of Gimp and Photoshop
- init.nsh: detect existing dictionaries and modify the list of available dictionaries accordingly in the installer sections
- the proposed install folder is now "LyX 2.0" as discussed
- promote our wiki and also our website (as almost all other programs do as well and which is quite helpful)
- uninstall.nsh: don't uninstall the user preferences by default
- configure.nsh:
- set also the .lyx file association when the user is not admin
- fix the path in which the LyX start menu shortcut is executed
- thanks to the new version of ImageMagick no longer admin permissions are required
- init.nsh: iron out 2 non-admin residues
- language files: add missing entries and remove some unused ones
- fix an uninstallation bug that user settings were not remove if requested
- whitespace fix

* Add option to bundle required ImageMagick/Ghostscript files without the need to modify registry keys that belong to the original applications. This allows for full support for installation by limited users, gives different users the possibility to have a different setup of all LyX tools and reduces download size. The necessary files will be included in the dependency package.
* Python, ImageMagick and Ghostscript will now all be compiled using the same MSVC compiler and can use the same C runtimes. This reduces the installer size.
* Compile Python files during installation to improve performance. Limited users may not have access to the installation folders so the files cannot be compiled afterwards.
* Only the settings that typically need to be changed for LyX releases are now in settings.nsh.
* Rename launcher executable to LyXLauncher.exe to match the alternative installer.
* Minor fixes and cleanup.
