I am really happy to announce CJK-LyX-1.3.0, which is a patched version of 
lyx-1.3.0 for Chinese, Japanese and Korean language users. You can 
download the patch, RPM source and binary(redhat-8.0) at the usual ftp 
site,

 ftp://stone.phys.pusan.ac.kr/pub/CJK-LyX.

Please be aware that from this version on, CJK-LyX will depend on 
xforms-lib with version not earlier than 1.0. Why?  From this version, the 
xforms-lib became open-source, and the needed internationalization of the 
lib can be implemented more easily. In fact, we have made a heavy patch 
against official xforms-1.0, which CJK-LyX-1.3.0 critically depends on.

So users of CJK-LyX should install our patched xforms-lib(xforms-1.0-i18n) 
   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^              
which you can download the patch, rpm source or binaries from the above 
ftp site.   

CJK-LyX-1.3.0 has a couple of important improvements over the previous 
versions. 

1. With our patched xforms-lib, you can now input CJK-characters on any 
part of lyx. You can even input file name in CJK-chars.

2. Cursor movement owned by the local input server is much improved. It is 
not perfect yet, but is improving!

3. You can now Find & Search CJK-characters as well. But spell-checking 
CJK-chars has not been implemented (Anyone how to do?)

As you all know, we, the CJK-LyX users, have been helped by the pool of 
lyx developers. But this time, Angus Leeming's contributions for the 
release of this CJK-LyX have been so critical that without his help 
CJK-LyX-1.3.0 could never come out this early. Last couple of weeks, we 
had numerous(my count went beyond 40 !) communication sessions--usually my 
question and his answer-- to develop the internationalization of xforms. 
He also gave a hand to polish CJK-LyX. I admire his kindness, generosity, 
endurance and professional skills. He really deserves our, the CJK-LyX 
users', Big applause !!  

So, enjoy LyX, and enjoy GNU spirit.

Regards,

cghan
