reed 93194cc8c7 This is an update to lyx 1.4.1. The jump from 1.3.x to 1.4 is
huge. Please see the announcements at http://www.lyx.org/announce/1_4_0.txt
and http://www.lyx.org/announce/1_4_1.txt

This adds a different interface, change tracking, character styles
new tex2lyx (instead of reLyX) and a lot more.

Pkgsrc changes include:

DESCR -- remove the word "New" since it is not new.

Improve COMMENT.

makepsres tool not used anymore.

New python scripts.

Remove post-install target for texmf files as now done via normal install.

patch-ah removed -- already integrated.
patch-ai removed -- reLyX was removed.
patch-aj removed -- Makefile changed (maybe this is needed to stop rebuild
between build and install steps -- need to check this.)

patch-ac added for sys./time.h needed; already in lyx development version.

(I did this update last week and tested on Linux, NetBSD and DragonFly
and havce been using on NetBSD.)

LyX is a wordprocessor frontend to LaTeX, which gives both the
ease-of-use of a wordprocessor, and the flexibility and power of
LaTeX.
Quasi-WYSIWYG interface, many LaTeX styles and layouts automatically
generated. Speeds up learning LaTeX and makes complicated layouts
easy and intuitive. Features include spell-checking, international
character support, WYSIWYG graphics, tables, and equations.
This version of LyX uses the XForms graphical user interface toolkit.
