- partial rewrite of the find & replace feature. This should solve most of
the performance problems
- new option `keep aspect ratio' in graphics dialog
- revert to the old behaviour when creating new floats (figure,
table...): the empty paragraph in the float now is a caption. It
seems that 1.2.0 behaviour was confusing too many people
- it is now possible to set the float placement parameters to
"document defaults"
- when the cursor is inside a collapsible inset, `Edit>Open/close
float' will leave it after the inset after closing it (this should
help entering of ERT insets)
- update Finnish, Danish, French and Russian localizations
- update Tutorial to 1.2.x features
- better support for entering Cyrillic and Greek alphabets
- cleanup shortcuts for section layouts. Starred versions are now
obtained by prepending a * to the section number (M-p asterisk 0, ...,
M-p asterisk 6)
- add keyboard shortcuts to the Documents menu
- support the numpad direction keys as equivalent to normal cursor
keys
- it is now possible to specify a non-existent file name on the command
line and have this file created for you
- new class cl2emult; update template for IEEEtran; small update to
heb-article and hollywood textclasses
using netbsd-1.5.3/alpha and the gcc-2.95.3 package.
while here fix the test for endian-ness instead of relying on a small
set of hard coded processor types.
Changes (see the NEWS file for a complete list):
- Floats, footnotes and margin notes are now real insets. The
positional parameters of figure, table and algorithm floats can be set
float-by-float
- Most problems with the new table inset of 1.1.6 have been addressed
(memory consumption, file bloat, spell-checking, search and replace...).
Better longtable header/footer support was implemented.
- Notes inset can now contain arbitrary LyX constructs; they will not
appear in the output.
- New minipage inset
- New graphics inset with support for hassle-free inclusion of various
image formats (GIF, JPEG, PNG and EPS by default) and a new
rendering scheme that should fix the bugs we had with the older
ghostscript method.
- Support for natbib for bibliography citations
- The math editor has been mostly rewritten
- New ligature break special character, useful for words like
"shelfful", or many german words
- Support for parsing preamble when converting LaTeX files. Along
with changes in the LaTeX production of alignment options, this
improves round-trip work where you export a LyX document as
LaTeX, and later reimport it from LaTeX.
- Support for setting bookmarks and jumping to them
- It is possible to cycle between a label and its references.
- Preliminary support for multiple bibliographies
- Babel can be disabled
- A thesaurus facility (English only)
by agc. For the "forms", "jpeg", and "Xpm" shared libraries, we have to
cast a wider net, so partially revert last commit. For that, "X11BASE" is
correct, as we already search "LOCALBASE" by virtue of ${LDFLAGS} set in
bsd.pkg.mk. This should fix PR pkg/16308.
(On my my Mac with an NFS mounted object directory, it keeps rebuilding
po/Makefile and getting it wrong.)
- - Take a stab at fixing PR pkg/16308: X11BASE -> X11PREFIX.
all dependencies on packages depending on "png" which contain shared
libraries, all for the (imminent) update to the "png" package.

- add support for latin3, latin4 and latin9 encodings
- change the encoding for Estonian from latin4 to latin1, since it
appears to be more suitable.
- add support for ae fonts (emulation of T1 encoding with OT1 fonts).
This is useful for creating pdf files in T1 encoding
- add support for dvipdfm
- when passing a file name as argument from command line, the
extension `.lyx' is added if necessary
- insert error insets in the documents when there have been unknown
tokens in the file
- new class `kluwer'; update to hollywood class
- the class encts has been renamed to entcs (stupid typo!) and
slightly updated
- updates to the introduction document and the Italian user guide
- updates to the Russian, Finnish and Hebrew localizations
- faster loading of large files (should now be proportional to file size)
- fix positioning of error insets when running LaTeX
- fix bug where latex would not be re-run if no depfiles were changed,
but the .dvi was removed
- fix possible crash when the cursor is between two spaces and a
selection is begun
- fix reading under unix of lyx files produced under windows (was
actually not fixed in 1.1.6fix3)

- fix insertion of \Upsilon in the math editor
- fix crash if banner-file was not found
- the `SubSection' layout of the cv class has been renamed to `Subsection'
without executable permissions.
This was causing new lyx users to get sub-optimal personal lyx
configs in some cases, as this script is invoked directly by lyx
when creating a ~/.lyx directory for a user who did not previously
have one.
- documentation has been updated to remove errors due to interface change
- new italian user guide; updated french localisation of menus and
documentation; new dutch translations of some examples
- it is now possible to enter directly characters in an encoding
different from latin1 (providing one is using a correct screen font)
- new encts class for Elsevier Science's Electronic Notes in
Theoretical Computer Science
- new cv class for writing curriculum vitae
- new extarticle, extreport, extbook and extletter classes, which are
versions of the normal classes with more font sizes available
- the aapaper class has been complemented with a aa class for the A&A
LaTeX document class version 5.0, which is slightly incompatible
with the older version
- add language support in docbook; better support for verbatim text.
- many translations updated; big french documentation overhaul; german
documentation update
- preliminary Thai support; new serbo-croatian support
foo-* to foo-[0-9]*. This is to cause the dependencies to match only the
packages whose base package name is "foo", and not those named "foo-bar".
A concrete example is p5-Net-* matching p5-Net-DNS as well as p5-Net. Also
change dependency examples in Packages.txt to reflect this.

Warning!:
One warning before we list the new features: The file format in LyX
1.1.6 is not backwards compatible to 1.1.5 and previous versions, so
you should be carefull before upgrading.
- many popups have been rewritten to use the new GUI-I scheme. In the
process they have received a nice cleanup: the Document and Paragraph
popups now contain in one single place what was previously scattered
in many places. Similarly, the citation and cross reference popups
have been overhauled.
- LyX now has a Preference popup where you can change most of your
lyxrc settings.
- the menus can now be defined in a text file, and they automatically
display the keyboard bindings associated with commands.
- it is now possible to provide your own icons for the toolbar.
- last but not least, work has begun on a KDE and a Gnome frontend for
LyX. They are not officially supported for this version, but this
will give you an idea of what is happening.
Other major changes in 1.1.6 include:
- the table support has been completely rewritten. It is now a modular
object (inset), each cell of which owns a (also) newly written text
inset. This now permits automatic text-wrap inside a tabular
cell (if you define a width), multiparagraph mode AND setting of
layouts for the paragraphs (lists inside a tabular cell!). Last but
not least, a wide tabular now scrolls automatically so that all of it
is visible without the need to enlarge the window!
While there are as yet no other new features, they will be now MUCH
easier to add. It may be that because of being "young" code some
features may not work right now, but at least it is much
better than before.
- new external material inset: this is a new kind of very powerful
inset which will allow LyX to interface intelligently with external
applications. Among other good things, it will finally allow you to
include GIF, JPEG, TIF, PNG, or just about any other raster format
images in your document. It will even do an approximate ascii
rendering when you do Ascii export if you have gifscii installed.
- The code which converts from LyX format to anything else (for
viewing or exporting purposes) and from anything else to LyX has been
rewritten. In particular, it is now possible to export to PDF, and to
import from HTML/MSWord. In fact it's now possible to add new import/export
formats without recompiling LyX by specifying external programs or scripts
in lyxrc settings
(note that the old import/export lyxrc settings no longer work).
- LyX can do command line exports without opening any GUI components.
- The multilingual support has been improved. It is now possible to use in a
document languages with different encodings, e.g. German (iso8859-1) and
Czech (iso8859-2). Such a document can be viewed on screen using an
iso10646-1 (Unicode) font. However, it is (currently) not possible to
have differently encoded languages in the same paragraph.
The languages and the encodings are defined in text files.
- Improved support for Hebrew and Arabic (also present in 1.1.5fix2).
- included files work now with docbook and linuxdoc; new layout
docbook-book.
- PSpell library and Aspell spell checker support now included thanks
largely to Kevin Atkinson (PSpell and Aspell maintainer).
that depend it, as suggested by wrstuden. The reason is so that older
binary packages which were linked against an a.out shared lib won't have
their package dependencies satisfied by the latest package, which has no
shared libraries. There's no help for old ELF packages, unfortunately.
for each of the continuation lines, rather than using backslashes to
continue a single, long definition. This makes it much easier to spot
pre-requisite packages and other dependencies.
