INSTALLATION

To install LyX/Mac 1.3.5, run the two installer packages. LyX-1.3.5 will
install the LyX application and run a script to clean-up some files LyX 
installed previously but that are no longer needed; TeX Resources will 
install some TeX resources in your teTeX folders to enable on-screen 
previews of mathematical equations and to allow reverse DVI searching.

   NOTE: If the LyX-1.3.5 installer fails to update an installation, try
   deleting the existing LyX application and running the installer again.
   (It may fail because the existing LyX application was installed with
   root ownership, which blocks installation by the user.)

The mac-bind.pdf file included in this directory provides a list of key 
strokes and their command equivalents for those entering "mac.bind" as 
the "Bind file" in LyX > Preferences > Look and Feel > User Interface.
(mac.bind is the default for new installations.)

If you're so inclined, the installation scripts the installer uses can 
be inspected by control-clicking on the LyX-1.3.5 and TeX Resources 
packages, and selecting "Show package contents" from the contextual menu 
that pops up. Then look inside Contents > Resources; there is one 
important file here in each case: postflight, which gets run with 
administrator privileges only in the TeX Resources package.

LyX normally requires a working teTeX installation. It can be 
installed without teTeX, but it cannot then produce any output.

Questions or comments about LyX/Mac can be directed to the LyX Users 
mailing list at lyx-users@lists.lyx.org. (For general information about

WHAT's NEW
==========

10/13/2004
- This updated version of LyX/Mac fixes problems with on-screen
  display of fonts in math environments, and it makes a minor change
  to the mac.bind file.

** Updates

- Add a new textclass, svglobal. It is needed for various
  Springer Verlag journals for which no specific class exists.

- Add a new bindings file mac.bind for LyX/Mac.

- The script used to control the generation of bitmap images for use
  in 'Instant Preview' of math equations has been re-written in python.
  Windows users now have some chance of getting Instant Preview to
  work for them.

- The built-in Qt dialogs are now correctly translated for the
  languages that Qt supports [Qt >= 3.2 only].

- Add support for Icelandic, Latvian, Lithuanian and Nynorsk.

- Updated the Basque, Danish, German, Italian, Romanian, Russian (fix crash 
  when autosaving) and Spanish localizations. Updated the Basque and German 
  documentation.

** Bug fixes

* Document input/output:

- Partly fix the handling of included files. External insets are still not
  working correctly [bug #605].

- Fix nesting of language change commands, especially important for
  Arabic [bugs #1225, #1404].

- Fix missing line break in front of \end{...} in some cases [bug #1225].

- Run makeindex and bibtex correctly when the file name contains some
  special characters [bug #1526].

- Prevent clashes with LaTeX packages defining "\boldsymbol" [bug #1498].

- Make import of the preamble of LaTeX files more robust [bug #1584].

- Fix handling of floats and counters in  svjog and svprobth
  textclasses [bug #1430].

- Fix handling of counters in the scrlettr and scrlttr2 classes.

- Fix off-by-one-error which caused LyX to choose the wrong custom margin
  package.

- Remove extra spaces around math insets in plain text output.

- Quote shell variables correctly in the generated sh script used
  to control the conversion of graphics images to a loadable format.
  Ditto for the convertDefault.sh script.

* User Interface:

- Use opening quotation marks after an opening square bracket.

- Fix the toggling of the short title inset in some cases.

- When the autodetection of latex classes cannot be done for some
  reason, provide a sensible list of textclasses.

- Honor correctly the various locale-related environment variables when
  looking for translated help files.

- Prevent activation of the Ok and Apply buttons in the reference
  dialog when simply manipulating the list of references in the dialog.

- Set the default button in the print dialog, activated on Return,
  to be the Ok button rather than the Close button. [bug #1465, Qt only].

- Enable instant preview to work on Solaris machines.

- Fix an annoying "could not delete temp dir" warning.

- Fix some math bindings like "M-m [" for german or french keyboards.

- Don't allow the insertion of incomplete citation references,
  which led to a crash [bug 1617].

- Correct the spelling of the "Acknowledgements" style in the APA layout.

* Configuration/Installation:

- When running under Windows, configure correctly the ps and pdf
  viewers [bug #1508].

- The Qt-related parts of the configure script honors the environment
  variables MOC and UIC if they are set.

- The precompiled .pyc files in the lib/lyx2lyx/ directory are not
  distributed anymore, since they were not correct anyway.

- Fix compilation for OpenBSD.

- Fix compilation with SGI C++ compiler.

- Fix compilation with gcc 3.4.

- Fix linking with Qt/Mac 3.3.1.

- Fix warning with automake 1.7.
