This file describes what has been done in the preparation of LyX 1.4.2
|
|
All comments are welcome.
|
|
|
|
I'd be glad if some of you could take the time to check it out (or fix
|
|
a bug or two if you are feeling adventurous). Let me recall that all
|
|
these fixes have been checked in the branch BRANCH_1_4_X, which you
|
|
can get with the command
|
|
svn co svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_4_X lyx-1.4.x

What's new
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
** Updates
|
|
|
|
- LyX now automatically uses file viewers and editors set at OS level
|
|
[Windows and Mac OS X only] (bug 2017).
|
|
|
|
- Add new function buffer-toggle-compression (and entry in Document
|
|
menu) to change whether the file will be compressed on disk or not.
|
|
|
|
- Update German, Hungarian, Italian (bug 2650), Polish, Spanish and
|
|
Turkish localizations of the interface.
|
|
|
|
- Update translations of documentation for German (all) and Hungarian
|
|
(Introduction, splash document, new tutorial examples).
|
|
|
|
- Add support for Austrian (new spelling) as document language.
|
|
|
|
- Add "LaTeX (pdflatex)" output format. This new output format produces
|
|
.tex files that are suitable for pdflatex, including figure conversion
|
|
to png, pdf or jpeg instead of eps.
|
|
|
|
- Add biographynophoto style to IEEEtran.layout; add new text class for
|
|
International Journal of Modern Physics C (and update support for
|
|
IJMP D).
|
|
|
|
- Add buttons for \overset and \underset to the math panel (bug 2533)
|
|
|
|
- Add support for the dvipdfmx converter.
|
|
|
|
- Add tgif->ppm and tgif->png converters for preview of tgif figures
|
|
|
|
- Native support for \intop and \ointop (only display, not in the math panel
|
|
yet)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
- Much better performance of screen updating in LyX/Mac, and with an
|
|
acceptable UI.
|
|
|
|
- Don't jump back to previous cursor position when trying to click on
|
|

* Miscellaneous:
|
|
|
|
- Replace the old sh version of lib/configure with the new python version
|
|
lib/configure.py. The TexFiles.sh script (which crashed on windows)
|
|
has also been pythonified.
|
|
|
|
- It is not needed anymore to run lib/configure.py in the main LyX
|
|
support directory.
|
|
|
|
- Reading of configuration now goes like this: LyX first reads the file
|
|
lyxrc.dist (if it exists). If lib/configure.py is newer than
|
|
either lyxrc.defaults, textclass.lst or packages.lst, it is re-run
|
|
before loading lyxrc.defaults and preferences.
|
|
|
|
- When compiling with --with-version-suffix on Windows, do not
|
|
rename the executable files.
|
|
|
|
- Fix lib/configure.py to find tex2lyx when compiling with
|
|
--with-version-suffix (bug 2285).
|
|
|
|
- Fix lib/configure.py to find tex2lyx if the path to it contains spaces.
|
|
|
|
- Use the clean_dvi.py script on Windows not only in the installer but also
|
|
in the source package.
|
|
|
|
- Fix the code to find interface localization on Windows and Mac OS X.
|
|
|
|
- Fix hyphens in man pages.
|
|
|
|
- Replace the \cygwin_path_fix_needed preference with the better named
|
|
\tex_expects_windows_paths; this is auto-detected and only matters on
|
|
Windows.
|
|
|
|
- Remove --enable-compression-support option of configure. Compression
|
|
support via zlib is now a requirement.
|
|
|
|
- Fix compilation on DragonFly BSD.
