-Known issues with version 1.5.0
-------------------------------------
-- User layout files must be converted to UTF-8
-In previous version, layout styles were allowed to use non-ASCII names
-using the local encodings. LyX-1.5 now assumes that all layout files are
-UTF-8 encoded. This means that non-ASCII style names are still allowed
-but they nust be valid UTF-8 strings. One way of doing the conversion
-is to use iconv. Using bash, the script below should work:\r
-\r
-cd /path/to/layouts\r
-for l in *\r
-do\r
- cp $l tmp.txt\r
- iconv -f latin1 -t utf8 tmp.txt -o $l\r
-done
-rm tmp.txt
