The following new -options have been added: - --batch - - Causes LyX to run the given commands without opening a GUI window. - Thus, something like: - lyx -batch -x "buffer-print printer default dvips" myfile.lyx - will cause LyX to print myfile.lyx to the default printer, using - dvips and the default print settings (which, of course, have to have - been configured already). At present, not many commands can be used - this way, but there will be more eventually. - --export-to (-E ) - - Allows one to perform a batch export of the LyX file that is opened - to the specified destination file and format . - For example, to create a PDF of a LyX document, you can run: - lyx -export-to pdf /path/to/dest.pdf /path/to/source.lyx - See the manual page for details. - -A bash completion script was added to the tarball. - -We have introduced a new flag to decide whether or not a given "document" -format shall be listed in the File > Export menu. This was necessary since -this menu got too large. If the flag "menu=export" is not explicitly set, -the formats are not included in the menu. This means that you might need -to click "Show in export menu" in Preferences > File Formats for your -customized file formats if you want them to appear in the menu. -Customized formats imported from a previous configuration are handled -by the prefs2prefs script, and should appear in the menu as before. -Note, though, that you still can export to any possible format via -File > Export > More Formats and Options ... - -The following pref variables were changed in 2.0: - -- \language_package was renamed to \language_custom_package - -- \language_use_babel (bool) has been replaced by - \language_package_selection, which can be - 0 (automatic selection) - 1 (always use babel) - 2 custom (use the custom package defined by - \language_custom_package) - 3 none (equivalent to former \language_use_babel false) - -The following pref variables are obsoleted in 2.0: - -- \plaintext_roff_command (was not used anymore) - -- \personal_dictionary, \spell_command, \use_input_encoding, - \use_personal_dictionary and \use_spell_lib (ispell support has been - removed) - -- \spellchecker_use_alt_lang and \use_escape_chars (actually not used - by the UI, and it is as simple to check whether the relevant - variable is empty) - -- \custom_export_command and \custom_export_format - - -The following new LyX functions have been introduced: - -- LFUN_WORD_FINDAD ("word-findadv"). -- LFUN_REGEXP_MODE ("regexp-mode"). -- LFUN_PHANTOM_INSERT ("phantom-insert"). -- LFUN_INSET_BEGIN ("inset-begin"). -- LFUN_INSET_END (""inset-end""). -- LFUN_INSET_BEGIN_SELECT ("inset-begin-select"). -- LFUN_INSET_END_SELECT ("inset-end-select"). -- LFUN_CHANGE_PREVIOUS ("change-previous"). -- LFUN_LABEL_INSERT_AS_REF ("label-insert-as-reference"). -- LFUN_SECTION_SELECT ("section-select"). -- LFUN_FONT_UNDERLINE ("font-underline"). -- LFUN_FONT_STRIKEOUT ("font-strikeout"). -- LFUN_FONT_UULINE ("font-underunderline"). -- LFUN_FONT_UWAVE ("font-underwave"). -- LFUN_BRANCHES_RENAME ("branches-rename"). -- LFUN_BRANCH_ADD_INSERT ("branch-add-insert"). -- LFUN_BUFFER_CLOSE_ALL ("buffer-close-all"). -- LFUN_INSET_FORALL ("inset-forall"). -- LFUN_DEBUG_LEVEL_SET ("debug-level-set"). -- LFUN_INSET_SELECT_ALL ("inset-select-all"). -- LFUN_MATH_AMS_MATRIX ("math-ams-matrix"). -- LFUN_VC_COMPARE ("vc-compare"). -- LFUN_SPELLING_ADD ("spelling-add"). -- LFUN_SPELLING_IGNORE ("spelling-ignore"). -- LFUN_SPELLING_REMOVE ("spelling-remove"). -- LFUN_PREVIEW_INSERT ("preview-insert"). -- LFUN_FORWARD_SEARCH ("forward-search"). -- LFUN_INSET_COPY_AS ("inset-copy-as"). -- LFUN_BUFFER_TOGGLE_OUTPUT_SYNC ("buffer-toggle-output-sync"). - - -The following LyX functions have been removed: - -- LFUN_NEXT_INSET_TOGGLE ("next-inset-toggle"): use "inset-toggle" instead. -- LFUN_NEXT_INSET_MODIFY ("next-inset-modify"): use "inset-modify" instead. -- LFUN_PARAGRAPH_SPACING ("paragraph-spacing"): use "paragraph-params" instead. - -- LFUN_NOTES_MUTATE ("notes-mutate"): replace - notes-mutate - with the more general function inset-forall - inset-forall Note: inset-modify note Note - -- LFUN_ALL_INSETS_TOGGLE ("all-insets-toggle"): replace - all-insets-toggle - all-insets-toggle - with the more generic function inset-forall - inset-forall inset-toggle - inset-forall * inset-toggle - There is a difference in the parameter, which is would be - like "note" in the first case and "Note" in the second. - -- LFUN_TABULAR_FEATURE ("tabular-feature"): use "inset-modify" instead. - I.e., "tabular-feature FEATURE " becomes: - inset-modify tabular FEATURE - -- LFUN_LINE_INSERT ("line-insert"): use "inset-insert line" instead. For - something close to the previous default, use: - inset-insert line rule height 0.25ex width 100col% \\end_inset - This is necessary because the line inset now takes various arguments. - -- LFUN_TOC_INSERT ("toc-insert"): use "inset-insert toc" instead. - - -The following LyX functions have been changed: - -- LFUN_INSET_TOGGLE ("inset-toggle"): For some insets, this function was used - to show the settings dialog. This is no longer possible and one should use - inset-settings for this purpose. - -- LFUN_WORD_REPLACE ("word-replace"): The replacement and searched strings - arguments have been inverted in order to allow the replacement of the word - at current cursor position, even if it is not selected. - -- LFUN_OPTIONAL_INSERT ("optional-insert") has been renamed LFUN_ARGUMENT_INSERT - ("argument-insert"). - - -The following LyX key bindings have been changed: - -- LFUN_MATH_MACRO_FOLD ("math-macro-fold") - The binding to "C-minus" has changed to "C-S-underscore". - -- LFUN_MATH_MACRO_UNFOLD ("math-macro-unfold") - The binding to "C-plus" has changed to "C-S-asterisk". - -- On Mac OSX the modifier keys and
