This file lists interface changes that might affect users in
1.4.0, and also some bug fixes.

Interface changes
-----------------

Some of the LyX functions have changed names :

tab-insert -> cell-split
tab-backward -> cell-backward
tab-forward -> cell-forward

Additionally, tab-forward (bound to the "Tab" key normally) no
longer has any effect in normal text.

bibkey-insert -> bibitem-insert

bibtex-insert -> dialog-show-new-inset bibtex
citation-insert -> dialog-show-new-inset citation
external-insert -> dialog-show-new-inset external
graphics-insert -> dialog-show-new-inset graphics
buffer-child-insert -> dialog-show-new-inset include
reference-insert -> dialog-show-new-inset ref

Add support for optional submenus (OptSubMenu) in ui files.

It is now possible to run LyX without a Toolbar if so desired.

These LyX functions have been removed entirely :

apropos
server-get-tip
math-greek
math-greek-toggle

File format changes
-------------------

Add \end_header.

The UI (menu and toolbar) file has changed its Toolbar handling.
The default.ui shipped file describes what the new format looks
like.

Bug fixes
---------

lyx2lyx now handles development version files.
Internal changes
----------------

Add change tracking.

Load graphics images in a more asynchronous manner.

Load graphics images in a serial fashion rather than (possibly) swamping the
machine with multiple conversion processes executing in parallel.

Remove much of the hard-coding of bibitem insets from the paragraph code.

Add a localDispatch method to many more inset classes and use it. An important
step in the clean-up of the current inset code and towards inset-unification.

Add a real Label dialog rather than that nasty Alert thingy.

Add Hfill and Newline insets.

Clean-up the use of Alert to make the dialogs far more descriptive.

Rewrite entirely the interface between LyX and its dialogs. Multiple showXYZ()
methods replaced with a single show(<name>). Attempt to create new LFUNs
so that the frontend dialogs do not actually change anything in the LyX core.
Instead they dispatch these LFUNs back to the core for consideration by it.

As a side effect of the above, redesign the implementation of the Model-
Controller-View implementation of the dialogs to make it transparent.

Move as much code as possible from the Menu frontends to the Backend.

(xforms): replace the Combox code with a native xforms widget, for eventual
inclusion in the xforms library itself.

Add a basic Word Count feature.
