+Interface changes
+-----------------
-- exiting a math formula with the keyboard.
- http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2217
+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.

+ at current cursor position, even if it is not selected.
