-Interface changes
------------------
-
-Some of the LyX functions have changed names:
-
-- A new LFUN_SPECIALCHAR_INSERT has been implemented that obsoletes the
- different LFUNs for single special characters:
-
- * LFUN_HYPHENATION_POINT_INSERT: removed. "hyphenation-point-insert"
- has been replaced by "specialchar-insert hyphenation-point"
- * LFUN_LIGATURE_BREAK_INSERT: removed. "ligature-break-insert"
- has been replaced by "specialchar-insert ligature-break"
- * LFUN_DOTS_INSERT: removed. "dots-insert"
- has been replaced by "specialchar-insert dots"
- * LFUN_END_OF_SENTENCE_PERIOD_INSERT: removed. "end-of-sentence-period-insert"
- has been replaced by "specialchar-insert end-of-sentence"
- * LFUN_MENU_SEPARATOR_INSERT: removed. "menu-separator-insert"
- has been replaced by "specialchar-insert menu-separator"
-
-- The function LFUN_BREAK_LINE, "break-line" has been renamed to LFUN_NEW_LINE,
- "new-line".
-
-- The function LFUN_PAGEBREAK_INSERT, "pagebreak-insert" has been renamed to
- LFUN_NEWPAGE_INSERT, "newpage-insert".
-

- custom insets and XML short element insets.
-

-Known issues in version 1.5.2
-------------------------------------
-
-- 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
-
-- 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.
-
-- 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.

-Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 1.5.x
--------------------------------------------------------
-
-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.
