Public release of LyX version 2.3.0
|
|
========================================
|
|
|
|
We are proud to announce the release of LyX 2.3.0.
|
|
|
|
With this release, LyX celebrates 22 years of existence. The 2.3 series
|
|
has a rich set of new features compared to the current stable series.
|
|
|
|
LyX 2.3.0 is the culmination of two years of hard work. An overview
|
|
of the new features can be found here:
|
|
https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX23
|
|
|
|
You can download LyX 2.3.0 from https://www.lyx.org/Download/.
|
|
|
|
For Windows users, if you installed a pre-release of LyX 2.3.0, you
|
|
should uninstall that version before installing this newer release.
|
|
|
|
We hope you will enjoy the result!
|
|
|
|
If a file from an earlier version of LyX is opened *and saved* with
|
|
any version of 2.3.x, then the original file will automatically be
|
|
backed up. The backup file will be found in the backup directory, if one
|
|
is set under Tools> Preferences> Paths, or else in the same folder as
|
|
the original file, if no backup directory is set. The filename of the
|
|
backup file will be:
|
|
ORIGNAME-lyxformat-NUM.lyx~
|
|
where NUM is the LyX format number of the original file. In the case of
|
|
a 2.2.x file, this will be 508, but in the case of older files it will be
|
|
different.
|
|
|
|
The file lib/RELEASE-NOTES lists some known issues and problems compared
|
|
to the current stable releases (LyX 2.2.x). We strongly recommend that
|
|
packagers of LyX on various platforms and distributions read this file.
|
|
|
|
As with any major release, this one comes with a lot of new features but
|
|
also some bugs. If you think you have found a bug in LyX 2.3.0, either
|
|
email the LyX developers' mailing list (lyx-devel at lists.lyx.org),
|
|
or open a bug report at https://www.lyx.org/trac/wiki/BugTrackerHome .
|
|
Please specify if the behavior you are reporting is different from behavior
|
|
in a previous LyX version.
|
|
|
|
If you have trouble using LyX or have a question, consult the
|
|
documentation that comes with LyX (under Help) and the LyX wiki, which you
|
|
will find at https://wiki.lyx.org/. You can also send email to the LyX users'
|
|
list (lyx-users at lists.lyx.org).
