* reLyX -- a LaTeX to LyX translator *
|
|
********************************************************************************
|
|
|
|
The purpose of reLyX is to translate *well-behaved* LaTeX into LyX.
|
|
|
|
Its main goals are:
|
|
1) Get through a well-behaved LaTeX2e file without crashing
|
|
2) Translate a lot of that file.
|
|
3) Localize the parts that can't be translated and copy them in TeX mode
|
|
It seems to achieve these main goals pretty well on most files.
|
|
|
|
reLyX is in its early stages, so it still has some bugs and lacking features.
|
|
There are many improvements that can and will be made to reLyX in the
|
|
near future. However, we wanted to get reLyX out there early on, to make
|
|
it easier for new LyX users who want to translate their existing LaTeX files.
|
|
|
|
reLyX uses a modified version of the Perl TeX parser Text::TeX package written
|
|
by Ilya Zakharevich (ilya@math.ohio-state.edu). The original Text::TeX is
|
|
available on CPAN.
|
|
|
|
There are lots more details in the man pages, so try 'man reLyX'
