 Note that fixes are available for some of these, but they have not yet
 been applied because of incomplete testing.

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

-Some of the LyX functions have changed names :
+There have been some changes to the LyX command line. There is a new option 
+"--batch" that causes LyX to run the given commands without opening a GUI 
+window. Thus, something like:
+    lyx --batch -x "buffer-print printer default dvips" myfile.lyx
+will cause LyX to print myfile.lyx to the default printer, using dvips and 
+the default print settings (which, of course, have to have been configured 
+already). At present, not many commands can be used this way, but there will
+be more eventually.

 
 

+The following variables are obsoleted in 2.0

 
 

-Known issues in version 1.5.2
-------------------------------------
+- \plaintext_roff_command (was not used anymore)
+- \spell_command and \use_spell_lib (ispell support has been removed)
+- \custom_export_command and \custom_export_format

 
 

-- LyX might crash if you switch the encoding of a document while the
-  View->Source pane is opened.
-  http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3561

 
 

-- LyX might suddenly slow down when you have copied something in another
-  instance of LyX or in another application. Known workaround: Ctrl+C of
-  some text inside the active window bring the speed back.
-  http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4045
+The following new LyX functions have been introduced:

 
 

-- Cursor restoration problems with Multiple-View:
-  When using multiple Windows to edit different parts of the
-  same document, the cursor position is sometimes not correctly restored
-  when you switch from one view to the other.
+- LFUN_WORD_FINDAD ("word-findadv").

 
 

-- RTL and keymaps:
-  Currently there is a bug where you can't use two non-RTL language keymaps if
-  the RTL preference is set (which is now the default). If you need to use two
-  non-RTL keymaps, for now you should just turn off the RTL preference (Tools -> 
-  Preferences... -> Language settings -> Language, uncheck "Right-to-left
-  language support").
-  We hope to offer more comprehensive support for multiple keymaps in the future,
-  which will solve this bug, as well as allow more than just two keymaps. If you 
-  have any input on this issue, please chime in on the developers mailing list,
-  or add your comments to http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4051.
+- LFUN_REGEXP_MODE ("regexp-mode").

 
 

+The following LyX functions have been removed:

 
 

-Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 1.5.x
+- LFUN_NEXT_INSET_TOGGLE ("next-inset-toggle"): use "inset-toggle" instead.
+
+The following LyX functions have been changed:
+
+- LFUN_INSET_TOGGLE ("inset-toggle"): For some insets, this function was used 
+  to show the settings dialog. This is no longer possible and one should use
+  inset-settings for this purpose.

-Due to the change to Unicode, there are some general things you'll have to take care
-about when upgrading from an older version to LyX 1.5.0 or newer. Please refer to the
-file UPGRADING for details.
