+       * scripts/lyxpreview_tools.py: move code common to both
+       legacy_lyxpreview2ppm.py and lyxpreview2bitmap.py into a separate
+       file. The code itself is a straight copy of the implementation
+       to be found in the 1.3.x tree. It is much more flexible and powerful
+       than the existing code in the 1.4.x tree. It's also better tested.
+
+       * scripts/legacy_lyxpreview2ppm.py: use the code in
+       lyxpreview_tools.py. Also use try-except blocks when reading files.
+       The code is as similar as possible to that found in the 1.3.x tree,
+       differing only in the parsing of the metrics file as 1.4.x requires
+       different data.
+
+       * scripts/lyxpreview2bitmap.py: use the code in lyxpreview_tools.py.
+       Also use the experience gained in making the 1.3.x code robust to
+       wrap arguments to external programs in 'single quotes'.
