update to 1.1.6
changes:
Warning!:
One warning before we list the new features: The file format in LyX
1.1.6 is not backwards compatible to 1.1.5 and previous versions, so
you should be carefull before upgrading.
- many popups have been rewritten to use the new GUI-I scheme. In the
process they have received a nice cleanup: the Document and Paragraph
popups now contain in one single place what was previously scattered
in many places. Similarly, the citation and cross reference popups
have been overhauled.
- LyX now has a Preference popup where you can change most of your
lyxrc settings.
- the menus can now be defined in a text file, and they automatically
display the keyboard bindings associated with commands.
- it is now possible to provide your own icons for the toolbar.
- last but not least, work has begun on a KDE and a Gnome frontend for
LyX. They are not officially supported for this version, but this
will give you an idea of what is happening.
Other major changes in 1.1.6 include:
- the table support has been completely rewritten. It is now a modular
object (inset), each cell of which owns a (also) newly written text
inset. This now permits automatic text-wrap inside a tabular
cell (if you define a width), multiparagraph mode AND setting of
layouts for the paragraphs (lists inside a tabular cell!). Last but
not least, a wide tabular now scrolls automatically so that all of it
is visible without the need to enlarge the window!
While there are as yet no other new features, they will be now MUCH
easier to add. It may be that because of being "young" code some
features may not work right now, but at least it is much
better than before.
- new external material inset: this is a new kind of very powerful
inset which will allow LyX to interface intelligently with external
applications. Among other good things, it will finally allow you to
include GIF, JPEG, TIF, PNG, or just about any other raster format
images in your document. It will even do an approximate ascii
rendering when you do Ascii export if you have gifscii installed.
- The code which converts from LyX format to anything else (for
viewing or exporting purposes) and from anything else to LyX has been
rewritten. In particular, it is now possible to export to PDF, and to
import from HTML/MSWord. In fact it's now possible to add new import/export
formats without recompiling LyX by specifying external programs or scripts
in lyxrc settings
(note that the old import/export lyxrc settings no longer work).
- LyX can do command line exports without opening any GUI components.
- The multilingual support has been improved. It is now possible to use in a
document languages with different encodings, e.g. German (iso8859-1) and
Czech (iso8859-2). Such a document can be viewed on screen using an
iso10646-1 (Unicode) font. However, it is (currently) not possible to
have differently encoded languages in the same paragraph.
The languages and the encodings are defined in text files.
- Improved support for Hebrew and Arabic (also present in 1.1.5fix2).
- included files work now with docbook and linuxdoc; new layout
docbook-book.
- PSpell library and Aspell spell checker support now included thanks
largely to Kevin Atkinson (PSpell and Aspell maintainer).
