I use this program in linux and would like to use it under OS/2.
But, I've got a question: Lyx uses Latex. ¿Is there an up to date Latex engine under OS/?.

FWIW - I have LyX compiling with qt for OS/2 - however due to some features that are currently missing in the OS/2 qt port it fails to link.

Once those features are added to qt on OS/2 - lyx should be real easy to build.

Cheers,

Paul.

Does that mean that the bounty on lyx is unnecessary?, or may be it useful for the porting of qt?.

It means what it says... I spent some time trying to build lyx - partly because of the bounty as I'd never heard of Lyx.

Currently it won't build due to missing features in the OS/2 build of qt3.

Once those features are in, I'd expect it (ie Lyx) to be reasonably easy to build - but someone still needs to do it.

Ok. I understand now. Thank you for your interest. And now, i'll bounty again, because of your interest.
But I have another question: Should be useful a bounty on qt port?.

The ebst way to help the qt port is most likely to sponsor Netlabs - they're already healping fund the qt3 port. You can track progress of the qt port by looking at http://svn.netlabs.org/qt3

Cool! I'm going to give it a try this weekend or so.

The link on your page has a "p" to much and points to a ".zipp" file.

Hi Paul,

great to hear that you are working on this (potentially) very useful program. I use LaTeX (VTeX) a lot and sometimes really miss an easy way of entering large quantities of text, correctly typeset without having to recompile every other second.

However, the first build crahes here with

Killed by SIGSEGV
pid=0x055b ppid=0x0537 tid=0x0001 slot=0x00d4 pri=0x0200 mc=0x0001

eax=00000000 ebx=00a8feb0 ecx=00000001 edx=00000000 edi=00000000 esi=00000000
Process dumping was disabled, use DUMPPROC / PROCDUMP to enable it.

libc061.dll is installed and I played around with the -sysdir parameter, as I was not quite sure about the syntax of the path info (forward or backslashes etc.). Didn't change the error.

My machine is a dual Opteron running eCS 1.2MR German.

Cheers
Andreas

Damn - the only positive about the above two reports is that the crash registers are the same.

can you try starting lyx with debug enabled - ie add -d 9 to the command line?

Cheers,

Paul.

lyx.exe -d 9 returns:

Anything else I can do to help?

BTW, in readme.os2 you wrote:


2) Some errors are shown to stdout, ie:
SYS1041: The name python is not recognized as an
internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
lyx: Could not bind address '/tmp/lyx_tmpdir28250VzFpEK/lyxsocket' to socket descriptor: Operation now in progress
lyx: Disabling LyX socket.

The part about python probably occurs because you don't have the Python scripting language installed. IIRC LyX uses Python for things like importing other file formats.

The tmp part makes me think that LyX is unable to create a temporary file. Do you have a "tmp" directory on the drive that LyX resides on? Are TMP and TMPDIR defined in CONFIG.SYS? You may need to use forward slashes.
