If you upgrade from version 0.12.0 or 1.0.x, you shouldn't have |
|---|
| 5 |
any problems. However, in the source we have begun a transition |
|---|
| 6 |
to use ANSI C++ more and this can make it hard or impossible to |
|---|
| 7 |
compile LyX on old or non-conformant compilers. If the compile is |
|---|
| 8 |
successfull everything should be just like in 1.0.4. Just run |
|---|
| 9 |
"make install", and it will automatically update the necessary |
|---|
| 10 |
files, provided that you install LyX the same place as |
|---|
| 11 |
an existing version. |

Document transfer |

----------------- |

| 15 |
|

| 16 |
In general, you don't need to convert any documents saved with LyX |
|---|
| 17 |
v0.10, v0.12.0 or v1.0.x to use them with LyX v1.1.6. |
|---|
| 18 |
|
|---|
| 19 |
LyX v1.1.6 can read all documents saved with lyx-0.12.0 and later correctly. |
|---|
| 20 |
Documents saved with lyx-0.10.x are read correctly up to the old math |
|---|
| 21 |
mode, which is not supported anymore. If you have documents with such |
|---|
| 22 |
math formulas, you convert it using the program COLD, written by Preben |
|---|
| 23 |
Rhandol. COLD can be found at: |

ftp://ftp.lyx.org/pub/lyx/contrib/ |
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 |
or at one of LyX archive mirror sites listed in README. |
|---|
| 29 |
|
|---|
| 30 |
Documents saved with LyX version 1.1.6 can be read correctly by |
|---|
| 31 |
LyX v0.12.0 and v1.0.x, except for new and a couple of changed |
|---|
| 32 |
features. A notable exception is the tabular format, which has changed |
|---|
| 33 |
in a major way in 1.1.6. No older versions of LyX are able to read |
|---|
| 34 |
this new inset. |
