The idea is to get a compilable file that does not require programs that are only available on certain platforms.
For example on Windows there is no Gnumeric available (only a very outdated and unsupported version with bugs).
there were 2 issues:
- the body was not output to the Preamble
- the theorem module already defines a theorem. It must not be output to the preamble to avoid a redefinition error of LaTeX
update the test files accordingly
\framebox{} is equal to \fbox{} and \makebox{} is equal to \mbox{}
When I once wrote this code LyX did not support \fbbox and \mbox and therefore had to use a workaround.
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 afdfc3cf43501a0728cef79385b31afe6f4cf877.
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.
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.
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.
The textcyr test did not work anymore, since the output of
"CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER VE" changed from \textcyr{\char226} to \textcyr{\cyrv}.
The the old version is now converted to ERT. In theory it could also be
converted to "CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER VE", but this would mean to maintain an
extra list, which is not worth the effort.
This is the first part of bug #8553. \textgreek was interpreted as the
polyglossia version even if polyglossia was not used. Now it is not recognized
at all and converted to ERT, but this ensures at least correct LaTeX output.
Previously tex2lyx did ignore table columns if the column specifier was
unknown. This can lead to data loss, and now it does not ignore these columns,
but assumes that the column specifiers use only once character. This can still
lead to data loss, but less often.
Now we can handle all types of captions defined in layout files or modules.
This does also mean that \captionabove and \captionbelow are only recognized
in KOMA-classes and not always anymore, but this is correct, since these
captions would not work in other document classes anyway.
