-Basically, screen fonts come in two different kinds: scalable outline fonts
- and non-scalable bitmap fonts.
- This distinction seems a bit arbitrary, since non-scalable fonts are actually
- scalable in most modern font renderers.
- The difference lies in the
-\emph on
-quality
-\emph default
- of the scaling, and the
-\emph on
-speed
-\emph default
- of display.
- The most important decision is thus whether you should use non-scalable
- bitmap fonts or scalable outline fonts.
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+Edit externally
\end_layout
-\begin_layout Standard
-The scalable fonts are built from
-\emph on
-outlines
-\emph default
- of the single glyphs (i.e.
- characters) in the font.
- This means that each glyph is defined using mathematical curves that are
- well suited for scaling to any requested size.
- This mathematical definition is interpreted by the font renderer and turned
- into a small picture composed of pixels according to which size and glyph,
- the programmer requests.
- This means that scalable fonts will look pretty good in all sizes.
- Well, almost all sizes.
- Since scalable fonts are defined in an abstract way, it can be hard to
- provide a good rendering at small sizes, where each pixel has to be very
- carefully computed to provide a good image.
- Technically it is possible to do this from the mathematical definition,
- but in order to keep the rendering reasonably fast, tradeoffs have to be
- made, and the result is that scalable fonts can be difficult to read at
- small sizes.

-Bitmap fonts on the other hand, are defined by bitmap graphics from the
- start, so they will look good at all the sizes they are meant for.
- However, they don't scale well, because in order to scale a glyph, each
- pixel is enlarged into several pixels.

- or any other picture manipulation program.
- In order to relieve this effect, bitmap fonts are typically provided in
- several fixed sizes typically from around 8 pixels high up to 34 pixels
- or so high in steps according to what is believed to be useful.
- The advantage of bitmap fonts is that no complicated computations are necessary
- to display each glyph, so bitmap fonts are thus faster displayed than scalable
- fonts.
- The disadvantage is that sizes that don't exists as fixed versions have

-The net result of all this, is that bitmap fonts are generally best for
- the small sizes, where they are available, while scalable fonts are generally
- best for large sizes.
- The logical conclusion would thus be to use bitmap fonts for the small
- sizes, and scalable fonts for the large sizes.
- Unfortunately, this is not a good idea, since bitmap fonts and scalable
- fonts are not designed to be used together, so the overall look of such

-\begin_layout Standard
-You do not have to define converters between all the formats between which
- you want to convert.
- For example, you will note that there is no `LyX to PostScript' converter,
- but LyX will export PostScript.
- It does so by first creating a LaTeX file (no converter needs to be defined
- for this) which is then converted to DVI using the `LaTeX to DVI' converter,
- and finally converts the resulting DVI file to PostScript.
- LyX finds such `chains' of converters automatically, and it will always
- choose the shortest possible chain.
- You can, though, still define multiple conversion methods between file
- formats.
- For example, the standard LyX configuration provides three ways to convert
- LaTeX to PDF: Directly, using

+ That way, you can find out which (if any) documents have already been translate

+ If no one is organizing the effort, please let us know that you're interested.

-Notice that these translations will work, but do contain a few flaws.
- In particular, all dialogs have been designed with the English text in
- mind, which means that some of the translated text will be too large to
- fit within the space allocated.
- This is only a display problem and will not cause any harm.
- Also, you will find that some of the translations do not define short-cut
- keys for everything.
- Sometimes, there are simply not enough free letters to do it.
- Other times, the translator just hasn't got around to doing it yet.
- Our localization team -- which you may wish to join -- will try to fix
- these shortcomings in future versions of LyX.

-Ambigous messages
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Sometimes it turns out that one english message needs to be translated into

- One example is the message
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-To
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- which has the german translation
-\lang german

-
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-gettext
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- does not handle such ambigous translations.
- Therefore you have to add some context information to the message: Instead
- of
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-To
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- it becomes
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-To[[as in 'From format x to format y']]
-\end_layout
-

- Now the two occurences of

-
- are different for

- and can be translated correctly to

-

-

-
-\lang german

-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-, respectively.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Of course the context information needs to be stripped off the original
- message when no translation is used.
- Therefore you have to put it in double square brackets at the end of the
- message (see the example above).
- The translation mechanism of LyX ensures that everything in double square
- brackets at the end of messages is removed before displaying the message.

-Dead Keys
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-There is a second way to add support for international characters through
- so-called dead-keys.
- A dead-key works in combination with a letter to produce an accented character.
- Here, we'll explain how to create a really simple dead-key to illustrate
- how they work.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Suppose you happen to need the circumflex character,
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
- ̂
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
-.
- You could bind the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem

- in your

-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-lyxrc
-\end_layout

- Now, whenever you type the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-^
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
--key followed by a letter, that letter will have a circumflex accent on
- it.
- For example, the sequence
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
-
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-^e
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
- produces the letter:
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
-ê
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
-.
- If you tried to type
-\begin_inset Quotes eld

-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-^t
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-
-\begin_inset Quotes erd

-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-t
-\end_layout

- Hitting
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-Space
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- after a dead-key produces the bare-accent.
- Please note this last point! If you bind a key to a dead-key, you'll need
- to rebind the character on that key to yet another key.
- Binding the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-,-key
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- to a cedilla is a bad idea, since you'll only get cedillas instead of commas.
-\end_layout
-

-
-\begin_layout Standard
-In this chapter, we describe the procedures for creating and installing
- new LyX layout and template files, as well as offer a refresher on correctly
- installing new LaTeX document classes.
- Some definitions: a document class is a LaTeX file (usually ending in
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-.cls
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- or
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-.sty
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-) which describes the format of a document such as an article, report, journal
- preprint, etc.
- and all the commands needed to realize that format.
- A layout file is a LyX file which corresponds to a LaTeX document class
- and which tells LyX how to
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
-draw
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
- things on the screen to make the display look something like the final
- printed page.
- More precisely, a layout file describes a
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
-text class
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
- which is the internal construct LyX uses to render the screen display.
-
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
-Layout
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
- and
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
-text class
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
- can be used somewhat interchangeably, but it is better to refer to the
- file as the layout, and the thing living in LyX's memory as the text class.
- A template file is simply a LyX document which contains a set of predefined
- entries for a given document class which are generally required for that
- class.
- Templates are especially useful for things like journal manuscripts which
- are to be submitted electronically.

-\begin_layout Standard
-Similar to layout files, and new with LyX 1.6, are layout
-\emph on
-modules
-\emph default
-.
- Modules are to LaTeX packages much as layouts are to LaTeX classes, and
- some modules---such as the Endnotes module---provide support for just such
- a package.
- In a sense, layout modules are similar to included files---files like stdsectio
-ns.inc---in that modules are not specific to a given document layout but
- may be used with many different layouts.
- The difference is that using a layout module does not require editing the
- layout file.
- Rather, modules are selected in the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem

-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Building modules is the easiest way to get started with layout editing,
- since it can be as simple as adding a single new paragraph or flex inset.
- But modules may, in principle, contain anything a layout file can contain.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-A module must begin with a line like the following:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-#
-\backslash
-DeclareLyXModule[endnotes.sty]{Endnotes}
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-The argument in square brackets is optional: It declares any LaTeX packages
- on which the module depends.
- The mandatory argument, in curly brackets, is the name of the module, as
- it should appear in
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-Document\SpecialChar \menuseparator
-Settings
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-.
- LyX uses the name to identify the module, so it should be unique.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-The module declaration should then be followed by lines like the following:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-#DescriptionBegin
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-#Adds an endnote command, in addition to footnotes.
-
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-#You will need to add
-\backslash
-theendnotes in ERT where you
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-#want the endnotes to appear.
-
-\end_layout

-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-Document\SpecialChar \menuseparator

-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- to provide the user with information about what the module does.
- The Requires is used to identify other modules with which this one must
- be used; the Excludes line is used to identify modules with which this
- one may not be used.
- Both are optional, and, as shown, multiple modules should be separated
- with the pipe symbol: |.
- Note that the required modules are treated disjunctively:
-\emph on
-at least one
-\emph default
- of the required modules must be used.
- Similarly,
-\emph on
-no
-\emph default
- excluded module may be used.
- Note that modules are identified here by their

-\end_layout

- In fact, it is strongly recommended that you not attempt to edit modules

- Then restart LyX and try creating a new document.
- You should see "

-\begin_layout PlainLayout

-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- file
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-There are two possibilities here.
- One is that the class file is itself based upon an existing document class.
- For example, many thesis classes are based upon
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-book.cls
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-.
- To see whether yours is, look for a line like
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\backslash
-LoadClass{book}
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-in the file.
- If so, then you may proceed largely as in the previous section, though
- the DeclareLaTeXClass line will be different.
- If your new class is thesis, and it is based upon book, then the line should
- read:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\backslash
-DeclareLaTeXClass[myclass, book]{thesis}
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-If, on the other hand, the new class is not based upon an existing class,
- you will probably have to
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
-roll your own
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
- layout.
- We strongly suggest copying an existing layout file which uses a similar
- LaTeX class and then modifying it, if you can do so.
- At least use an existing file as a starting point so you can find out what
- items you need to worry about.
- Again, the specifics are covered below.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Section
-Declaring a new text class
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-When it's finally time to get your hands dirty and create or edit your own
- layout file, the following sections describe what you're up against.
- Our advice is to go slowly, save and test often, listen to soothing music,
- and enjoy one or two of your favorite adult beverages; more if you are
- getting particularly stuck.
- It's really not that hard, except that the multitude of options can become
- overwhelming if you try to do to much in one sitting.
- Go have another adult beverage, just for good measure.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Here we go!
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Lines in a layout file which begin with a
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-#
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- are comments.
- There is one exception to this rule: all layouts should begin with lines
- like:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\size small
-#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\size small
-#
-\backslash
-DeclareLaTeXClass{article}
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-The second line is used when you configure LyX.
- The layout file is read by the LaTeX script
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-chkconfig.ltx
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-, in a special mode where
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-#
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- is ignored.
- The first line is just a LaTeX comment, and the second one contains the
- declaration of the text class.
- If these lines appear in a file named
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-article.layout
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-, then they define a text class of name
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-article
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- (the name of the layout file) which uses the LaTeX document class
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-article.cls
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- (the default is to use the same name as the layout).
- The string
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
-article
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
- that appears above is used as a description of the text class in the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem

-\end_layout

-\begin_layout Standard
-Let's assume that you wrote your own text class that uses the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-article.cls
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- documentclass, but where you changed the appearance of the section headings.
- If you put it in a file
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-myarticle.layout
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-, the header of this file should be:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\size small
-#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\size small
-#
-\backslash
-DeclareLaTeXClass[article]{article (with my own headings)}
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-This declares a text class
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-myarticle
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-, associated with the LaTeX document class
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-article.cls
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- and described as
-\begin_inset Quotes eld
-\end_inset
-
-article (with my own headings)
-\begin_inset Quotes erd
-\end_inset
-
-.
- If your text class depends on several packages, you can declare it as:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\size small
-#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\size small
-#
-\backslash
-DeclareLaTeXClass[article,foo.sty]{article (with my own headings)}
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-This indicates that your text class uses the foo.sty package.
- Finally, it is also possible to declare classes for DocBook code.
- Typical declarations will look like
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\size small
-#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\size small
-#
-\backslash
-DeclareDocBookClass[article]{SGML (DocBook article)}
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Note that these declarations can also be given an optional parameter declaring
- the name of the document class (but not a list).
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-So, to be as explicit as possible, the form of the layout declaration is:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-
-\size small
-#
-\backslash
-DeclareLaTeXClass[class,package.sty]{layout description}
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-The class need only be specified if the name of the LaTeX class file and
- the name of the layout file are different; if the name of the classfile
- is not specified, then LyX will simply assume that it is the same as the
- name of the layout file.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-When the text class has been modified to your taste, all you have to do
- is to copy it either in
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code

- Exit LyX and restart it; then your new text class should be available along
- with the others.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-In versions of LyX prior to 1.6, you had to restart LyX to see any changes
- you made to your layout files.
- As a result, editing layout files could be very time consuming.
- Beginning with 1.6, however, you can force a reload of the layout currently
- in use by using the LyX function
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem

- If you want to use this function, then, you should simply enter it in the

- recommended that you not attempt to edit your layout while simultaneously

- Use a test document.
- Syntax errors and the like in your layout file could cause peculiar behavior.
- In particular, such errors could cause LyX to regard the current layout
- as invalid and to attempt to switch to some other layout.
- The LyX team strives to keep LyX stable in such situations, but safe is
- better than sorry.

-Upgrading old layout files
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-The file format of layout files changes from time to time, so old layout
- files need to be converted.
- This process has been automated in LyX 1.4.0: If LyX reads an old format
- layout file it will call the conversion tool
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-$LyXDir/scripts/layout2layout.py
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- and convert it to a temporary file in current format.
- The original file is left untouched, so that you can still use it with
- LyX 1.3.x.
- If you want to convert the layout file permanently, just call the converter
- by hand:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout LyX-Code
-python $LyXDir/scripts/layout2layout.py myclass.layout myclassnew.layout
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Then copy
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code

-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-myclassnew.layout

-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-The automatic conversion does only handle syntax changes.
- It cannot handle the case where the contents of included files was changed.
- For example, layout files based on
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code

-book.layout

-Templates are created just like usual documents.
- The only difference is that usual documents contain all possible settings,

-One often requested feature from LyX users is to be able to interface LyX
- with Xfig, Dia, or other similar applications that specialize in producing
- a certain kind of diagram, figure, schematic or whatever material might
- be relevant to include in your document.
- Previously, it was only possible to include boring, static, fixed images
- in LyX documents with the graphics feature, but there are several limitations
- attached to this approach:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Itemize
-If you want to change the figure, you have to invoke an external program
- by hand
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Itemize
-LyX does not notice that the referenced files change, so the on-screen display
- can fast become obsolete, and this is aggravated by the lack of a means
- of updating the display
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Itemize
-The graphics stuff does not provide any mechanisms for coping with different
- exported formats such as DocBook, HTML or plain text
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-The external material facility attempts to solve all of these problems
-\begin_inset Foot
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-Even if the graphics facility can't solve all problems, it is still valuable
- because it does provide in-line preview of the graphics, and supports advanced
- geometric transformations with a comfortable user interface.
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-.
- It does this by offering a general method to interface LyX to external
- applications.
- Instead of introducing a long list of different constructs tailored for
- each specific application, we chose to sacrifice the in-line displaying
- of the included material in order to provide a general construct to cover
- a wide range of applications.
- The result is the external material construct.
- External material presents itself in the document simply as a button, but
- don't let this fool you.
- When you click on it, a dialog will appear that allows you to chose exactly
- what material to include, and in the following sections you will learn
- that this is indeed a powerful mechanism that can solve all of the above
- problems, and more.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Section
-How does it work?
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-The external material feature is based on the concept of a
-\emph on
-template
-\emph default
-.
- A template is a specification of how LyX should interface with a certain
- kind of material.
- As bundled, LyX comes with predefined templates for Xfig figures, Dia diagrams,
- various raster format images, gnuplot, and more.
- You can check the actual list by using the menu
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem
-status collapsed

-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-Insert\SpecialChar \menuseparator
-File\SpecialChar \menuseparator
-External

-\end_inset
-
-
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-Material
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-.
- Furthermore, it is possible to roll your own template to support a specific
- kind of material.
- Later we'll describe in more detail what is involved, and hopefully you
- will submit all the templates you create so we can include them in a later
- LyX version.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Another basic idea of the external material feature is to distinguish between
- the original file that serves as a base for final material and the produced
- file that is included in your exported or printed document.
- For example, consider the case of a figure produced with
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-Xfig
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-.
- The Xfig application itself works on an original file with the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-.fig
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- extension.
- Within XFig, you create and change your figure, and when you are done,
- you save the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-fig
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
--file.
- When you want to include the figure in your document, you invoke
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-transfig
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- in order to create a PostScript file that can readily be included in your
- LaTeX file.
- In this case, the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-.fig
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- file is the original file, and the PostScript file is the produced file.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-This distinction is important in order to allow updating of the material
- while you are in the process of writing the document.
- Furthermore, it provides us with the flexibility that is needed to support
- multiple export formats.
- For instance, in the case of a plain text file, it is not exactly an award-winn
-ing idea to include the figure as raw PostScript.
- Instead, you'd either prefer to just include a reference to the figure,
- or try to invoke some graphics to Ascii converter to make the final result
- look similar to the real graphics.
- The external material management allows you to do this, because it is parameter
-ized on the different export formats that LyX supports.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Besides supporting the production of different products according to the
- exported format, it supports tight integration with editing and viewing
- applications.
- In the case of an XFig figure, you are able to invoke
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-Xfig
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- on the original file with a single click from within the external material
- dialog in LyX, and also preview the produced PostScript file with
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-ghostview
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- with another click.
- No more fiddling around with the command line and/or file browsers to locate
- and manipulate the original or produced files.
- In this way, you are finally able to take full advantage of the many different
- applications that are relevant to use when you write your documents, and
- ultimately be more productive.

-The substitution mechanism
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-When the external material facility invokes an external program, it is done
- on the basis of a command defined in the template configuration file.
- These commands can contain various macros that are expanded before execution.
- Execution always take place in the directory of the containing document.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Also, whenever external material is to be displayed, the name will be produced
- by the substitution mechanism, and most other commands in the template
- definition support substitution as well.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-The available macros are the following:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Description
-$$FName The filename of the file specified in the external material dialog.
- This is either an absolute name, or it is relative to the LyX document.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Description
-$$Basename The filename without path and without the extension.
-\end_layout

-\begin_layout Standard
-You may ask why there are so many path macros.
- There are mainly two reasons:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-First, relative and absolute file names should remain relative or absolute,
- respectively.
- Users may have reasons to prefer either form.
- Relative names are useful for portable documents that should work on different
- machines, for example.
- Absolute names may be required by some programs.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Second, LaTeX treats relative file names differently than LyX and other
- programs in nested included files.
- For LyX, a relative file name is always relative to the document that contains
- the file name.
- For LaTeX, it is always relative to the master document.
- These two definitions are identical if you have only one document, but
- differ if you have a master document that includes part documents.
- That means that relative filenames must be transformed when presented to
- LaTeX.
- Fortunately LyX does this automatically for you if you choose the right
- macros.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-So which path macro should be used in new template definitions? The rule
- is not difficult:
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Itemize
-Use
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-$$AbsPath
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- if an absolute path is required.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Itemize
-Use
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-$$AbsOrRelPathMaster
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- if the substituted string is some kind of LaTeX input.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Itemize
-Else use
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-$$AbsOrRelPathParent
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- in order to preserve the user's choice.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-There are special cases where this rule does not work and e.g.
-\begin_inset Space ~
-\end_inset
-
-relative names are needed, but normally it will work just fine.
- One example for such a case is the command
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-ReferencedFile latex "$$AbsOrRelPathMaster$$Basename.pstex_t"
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- in the XFig template above: We can't use the absolute name because the
- copier for
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-.pstex_t
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- files needs the relative name in order to rewrite the file content.

-\begin_layout Standard
-\begin_inset Note Note
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-This section is outdated
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
-The external material feature interfaces with a lot of external programs
- and does so automatically, so we have to consider the security implications
- of this.
- In particular, since you have the option of including your own filenames
- and/or parameter strings and those are expanded into a command, it seems
- that it would be possible to create a malicious document which executes
- arbitrary commands when a user views or prints the document.
- This is something we definately want to avoid.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-However, since the external program commands are specified in the template
- configuration file only, there are no security issues if LyX is properly
- configured with safe templates only.
- This is so because the external programs are invoked with the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-execvp
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
--system call rather than the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-system
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- system-call, so it's not possible to execute arbitrary commands from the
- filename or parameter section via the shell.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-This also implies that you are restricted in what command strings you can
- use in the external material templates.
- In particular, pipes and redirection are not readily available.
- This has to be so if LyX should remain safe.
- If you want to use some of the shell features, you should write a safe
- script to do this in a controlled manner, and then invoke the script from
- the command string.
- In the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-lib/scripts
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- directory of the LyX installation, you can find a safe wrapper script
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-general_command_wrapper.py
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- that supports redirection of input and output.
- That can serve as an example for how to write safe template scripts.
- For a more advanced example that uses
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-fork
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- and friends, take a look at the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-pic2ascii.py
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- converter script.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-It is possible to design a template that interacts directly with the shell,
- but since this would allow a malicious user to execute arbitrary commands
- by writing clever filenames and/or parameters, we generally recommend that
- you only use safe scripts that work with the
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
-status collapsed
-
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-execvp
-\end_layout
-
-\end_inset
-
- system call in a controlled manner.
- Of course, for use in a controlled environment, it can be tempting to just
- fall back to use ordinary shell scripts.
- If you do so, be aware that you
-\emph on
-will
-\emph default
- provide an easily exploitable security hole in your system.
- Of course it stands to reason that such unsafe templates will never be
- included in the standard LyX distribution, although we do encourage people
- to submit new templates in the open source tradition.
- But LyX as shipped from the official distribution channels will never have
- unsafe templates.
-\end_layout
-
-\begin_layout Standard
-Including external material provides a lot of power, and you have to be
- careful not to introduce security hazards with this power.
- A subtle error in a single line in an innocent looking script can open
- the door to huge security problems.
- So if you do not fully understand the issues, we recommend that you consult
- a knowledgable security professional or the LyX development team if you
- have any questions about whether a given template is safe or not.
- And do this before you use it in an uncontrolled environment.

+ installing new LaTeX document classes.
+
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+First, let us a say a few words about how one ought to think about the relation
+ between LyX and LaTeX.
+ The thing to understand is that, in a certain sense, LyX doesn't know anything
+ about LaTeX.
+ Indeed, from LyX's point of view, LaTeX is just one of several
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+backend formats
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+ in which it is capable of producing output.
+ Other such formats are DocBook, plaintext, and XHTML.
+ LaTeX is, of course, a particularly important format, but very little of
+ the information LyX has about LaTeX is actually contained in the program
+ itself.

+\begin_inset Quotes erd

+ into LyX.
+ But the developers generally regard this as a Bad Thing.
\end_layout
\end_inset

+ Rather, that information, even for the standard classes like
\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
status collapsed
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-find-replace
+\begin_layout Plain Layout

-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:MenuItem

+You can think of the layout file for a given document class as a translation

\end_layout
+\begin_layout Standard
+Defining the LyX--LaTeX correspondence is not the only thing layout files
+ do, though.
+ Their other job is to define how the LyX constructs themselves will appear
+ on-screen.
+ The fact that layout files have these two jobs is often a source of confusion,
+ because they are completely separate.
+ Telling LyX how to translate a certain paragraph style into LaTeX does
+ not tell LyX how to display it; conversely, telling LyX how to display
+ a certain paragraph style does not tell LyX how to translate it into LaTeX
+ (let alone tell LaTeX how to display it).
+ So, in general, when you define a new LyX construct, you must always do
+ two quite separate things: (i)
+\begin_inset space ~

-
-\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code

\end_layout
-\end_inset
+\begin_layout Standard
+Much the same is true, of course, as regards LyX's other backend formats,
+ though XHTML is in some ways different, because in that case LyX
+\emph on
+is
+\emph default
+ able, to some extent, to use information about how it should display a
+ paragraph on the screen to output information (in the form of CSS) about
+ how the paragraph should be displayed in a browser.
+ Even in this case, however, the distinction between what LyX does internally
+ and how things are rendered externally remains in force, and the two can
+ be controlled separately.
+ See

+\begin_layout Standard
+As with LaTeX or DocBook, the format of LyX's XHTML output is also controlled

+ In general, LyX provides sensible defaults and, as mentioned earlier, it
+ will even construct default CSS style rules from the other layout tags.
+ For example, LyX will attempt to use the information provided in the

+\begin_layout Standard
+In many cases, then, you may not have to do anything at all to get acceptable

+ But in some cases you will, and so LyX provides a number of layout tags

+\begin_layout Standard
+The external material feature is based on the concept of a

+template
+\emph default
+.
+ A template is a specification of how LyX should interface with a certain
+ kind of material.
+ As bundled, LyX comes with predefined templates for Xfig figures, various
+ raster format images, chess diagrams, and LilyPond music notation.
+ You can check the actual list by using the menu

+.
+ Furthermore, it is possible to roll your own template to support a specific
+ kind of material.
+ Later we'll describe in more detail what is involved, and hopefully you
+ will submit all the templates you create so we can include them in a later
+ LyX version.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+Another basic idea of the external material feature is to distinguish between
+ the original file that serves as a base for final material and the produced
+ file that is included in your exported or printed document.
+ For example, consider the case of a figure produced with
\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code

-\begin_layout PlainLayout

+\begin_layout Plain Layout

+This distinction is important in order to allow updating of the material
+ while you are in the process of writing the document.
+ Furthermore, it provides us with the flexibility that is needed to support
+ multiple export formats.
+ For instance, in the case of a plain text file, it is not exactly an award-winn
+ing idea to include the figure as raw PostScript.
+ Instead, you'd either prefer to just include a reference to the figure
+ or try to invoke some graphics to ASCII converter to make the final result
+ look similar to the real graphics.
+ The external material management allows you to do this, because it is parametri
+zed on the different export formats that LyX supports.
+\end_layout
-).
+\begin_layout Standard
+Besides supporting the production of different products according to the
+ exported format, it supports tight integration with editing and viewing
+ applications.
+ In the case of an Xfig figure, you are able to invoke Xfig on the original
+ file with a single click from within the external material dialog in LyX,
+ and also preview the produced PostScript file with Ghostview with another
+ click.
+ No more fiddling around with the command line and/or file browsers to locate
+ and manipulate the original or produced files.
+ In this way, you are finally able to take full advantage of the many different
+ applications that are relevant to use when you write your documents, and
+ ultimately be more productive.

+You may ask why there are so many path macros.

+Relative and absolute file names should remain relative or absolute, respectivel
+y.
+ Users may have reasons to prefer either form.
+ Relative names are useful for portable documents that should work on different
+ machines, for example.
+ Absolute names may be required by some programs.
+\end_layout
-o
+\begin_layout Enumerate
+LaTeX treats relative file names differently than LyX and other programs
+ in nested included files.
+ For LyX, a relative file name is always relative to the document that contains
+ the file name.
+ For LaTeX, it is always relative to the master document.
+ These two definitions are identical if you have only one document, but
+ differ if you have a master document that includes part documents.
+ That means that relative filenames must be transformed when presented to
+ LaTeX.
+ Fortunately LyX does this automatically for you if you choose the right
+ macros.
\end_layout

+The external material feature interfaces with a lot of external programs
+ and does so automatically, so we have to consider the security implications
+ of this.
+ In particular, since you have the option of including your own filenames
+ and/or parameter strings and those are expanded into a command, it seems
+ that it would be possible to create a malicious document which executes
+ arbitrary commands when a user views or prints the document.
+ This is something we definitely want to avoid.
+\end_layout
-
+\begin_layout Standard
+However, since the external program commands are specified in the template
+ configuration file only, there are no security issues if LyX is properly
+ configured with safe templates only.
+ This is so because the external programs are invoked with the
\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code

+ system-call, so it's not possible to execute arbitrary commands from the
+ filename or parameter section via the shell.
\end_layout
-\end_inset
-
+\begin_layout Standard
+This also implies that you are restricted in what command strings you can
+ use in the external material templates.
+ In particular, pipes and redirection are not readily available.
+ This has to be so if LyX should remain safe.
+ If you want to use some of the shell features, you should write a safe
+ script to do this in a controlled manner, and then invoke the script from
+ the command string.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+It is possible to design a template that interacts directly with the shell,
+ but since this would allow a malicious user to execute arbitrary commands
+ by writing clever filenames and/or parameters, we generally recommend that
+ you only use safe scripts that work with the
\begin_inset Flex CharStyle:Code
status collapsed
-\begin_layout PlainLayout
-keymap-secondary
+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+execvp
\end_layout
\end_inset
+ system call in a controlled manner.
+ Of course, for use in a controlled environment, it can be tempting to just
+ fall back to use ordinary shell scripts.
+ If you do so, be aware that you
+\emph on
+will
+\emph default
+ provide an easily exploitable security hole in your system.
+ Of course it stands to reason that such unsafe templates will never be
+ included in the standard LyX distribution, although we do encourage people
+ to submit new templates in the open source tradition.
+ But LyX as shipped from the official distribution channels will never have
+ unsafe templates.
+\end_layout
+\begin_layout Standard
+Including external material provides a lot of power, and you have to be
+ careful not to introduce security hazards with this power.
+ A subtle error in a single line in an innocent looking script can open
+ the door to huge security problems.
+ So if you do not fully understand the issues, we recommend that you consult
+ a knowledgeable security professional or the LyX development team if you
+ have any questions about whether a given template is safe or not.
+ And do this before you use it in an uncontrolled environment.
