# Basic External Templates for LyX

Template RasterImage
	GuiName "[Bitmap: $$FName]"
	HelpText
		A bitmap file.
		In the parameters box, you can provide optional
		parameters for the ImageMagick convert program.
		E.g., use `-border 10x10 -bordercolor black'
		to surround the picture with a black border 
		when you export to LaTeX.
		When you export to Ascii, you can provide a
		number describing how many columns the picture
		should expand to.
		This template uses Gimp for editing, and 
		ImageMagick to do conversions. It requires 
		Python for exporting to Ascii and DocBook, 
		and gifscii for exporting to Ascii.

		optional parameters for the ImageMagick
		convert script.
		This template uses XFig for editing, and 
		fig2dev and ImageMagick to do conversions. 
		It requires Python for exporting to Ascii
		and DocBook, and gifscii for exporting to 
		Ascii.

Template ChessDiagram
	GuiName "[Chess: $$Basename]"
	HelpText
		A chess position diagram.
		This template will use XBoard to view
		and edit the position. Use the
		'File->Save Position' in XBoard to save 
		the position that you want to display.
		Make sure to give it a '.fen' extension
		and remember to type in a relative path
		to the LyX document location.
		Within XBoard, use 'Edit->Edit Position'
		to enable general editing of the board.
		You might also check out the
		'Options->Test legality' option, and
		remember to middle and right click to 
		insert new material in the board.
		In order for this to work, you have to
		install the lyxchess.sty which is bundled
		with LyX, and the chess.sty from CTAN.
