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 +Caveats when upgrading from earlier versions to 2.0.x +------------------------------------------------------- -- 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.
