Public release of LyX version 2.2.4
|
|
===================================
|
|
|
|
We are proud to announce the release of LyX 2.2.4. This is the fourth and
|
|
final maintenance release in the 2.2.x series.
|
|
|
|
You can download LyX 2.2.4 from http://www.lyx.org/Download/.
|
|
|
|
LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based
|
|
on the structure of your documents and not simply their appearance. It is
|
|
released under a Free and Open Source Software license.
|
|
|
|
LyX 2.2.4 is the result of on-going efforts to make our stable version more
|
|
reliable and more stable. We have fixed a number of bugs and made several
|
|
improvements. Most users, however, will want to upgrade to LyX 2.3.0, which
|
|
was released shortly before 2.2.4. Users who want or need to continue using
|
|
the 2.2.x series, however, should in most cases upgrade to 2.2.4. Perhaps its
|
|
most important new feature is that it is able to read and write files in the
|
|
2.3.x format. Please note, however, that the conversion process back and forth
|
|
usually will not leave one with an identical file, so we do not recommend that
|
|
users of 2.2.4 try to collaborate with users of 2.3.x.
|
|
|
|
If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.2.4, please open a bug report at
|
|
http://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome. If you're not sure whether it
|
|
really is a bug, you can e-mail the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel
|
|
<at> lists.lyx.org) and ask. Please note, however, that bugs discovered in
|
|
2.2.4 will only be fixed in the 2.3.x series (if they still exist there), as
|
|
there will be no further releases in the 2.2.x series.
|
|
|
|
If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the
|
|
documentation that comes with LyX and the LyX wiki, which lives at
|
|
http://wiki.lyx.org/. If you can't find the answer there, e-mail the LyX
|
|
users' list (lyx-users <at> lists.lyx.org).
|
|
|
|
We hope you enjoy using LyX 2.2.4.
|
|
|
|
