New Lyx Version eas(ier) to install on Windows.
There is a new Lyx Version that works on Windows quite well -- windows is now officially supported. So, those of you who have been hesitant to try LyX because it supposedly doesn't work on Windows, have no more excuse ;-) An executable installer is available at http://www.lyx.org The setup process guides you through the other programs that are needed (ImageMagick, Ghostscript, a minimal shell like minsys, Python, and optionally Perl) to run lyx well. -Travis

1. A question: what ImageMagick file is needed? http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=24099 (I.e., what do you get out of "dynamic"?) Comment: ImageMagick seems very RAM intensive. 2. I do not see the shell requirment. Is that just your recommendation? 3. Are you using it on Windows? If so, how's it going? Thanks, Alan Isaac
