-This file lists interface changes that might affect users in 1.5.0 and

-1.4.5. Note that fixes are available for many of these, but they have

 Interface changes
 -----------------
 
-Some of the LyX functions have changed names :
+The following variables are obsoleted in 2.0
 
+- \plaintext_roff_command (was not used anymore)
+- \spell_command and \use_spell_lib (ispell support has been removed)
 
-Known issues with version 1.5.0
-------------------------------------
 
-- User layout files must be converted to UTF-8
+The following new LyX functions have been introduced:
 
-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:
-
-cd /path/to/layouts
-for l in *
-do
-  cp $l tmp.txt
-  iconv -f latin1 -t utf8 tmp.txt -o $l
-done
-rm tmp.txt
+- LFUN_WORD_FINDAD ("word-findadv").
 
-- Cursor restoration problems with Multiple-View
+- LFUN_REGEXP_MODE ("regexp-mode").
 
-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.
+- LFUN_COPY_LABEL_AS_REF ("copy-label-as-reference").
 
-- Languages/encodings and insets
+The following LyX functions have been removed:
+
+- LFUN_NEXT_INSET_TOGGLE (next-inset-toggle): use "inset-toggle" instead.
+
+Known issues in version 2.0.0

+Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 2.0.x
+-------------------------------------------------------
 
-One of the bugs fixed in LyX 1.5.0 is that previously, there were certain 
-specific cases in which the LaTeX generated did not correctly reflect 
-language/encoding transitions in and around insets (footnotes, LyX notes).
-After much deliberation, it was decided not to change older files such that
-they will still reflect the old LaTeX output; rather, they will now correctly
-reflect the situation as it appears in the GUI. This means, however, that if 
-you mangled the text in the GUI in the older versions, in order that it
-generate the correct LaTeX output, the LaTeX will now generate the mangled 
-text. If this is problematic for you, please get in touch with us on the
-developers mailing list, we do have some possible solutions for this.
 
-The effects of this will be more pronounced for RTL (Hebrew, Arabic, Farsi) 
-users --- though they affect users of other languages as well.
