For example, line 492ff spells a list of quoted items as \begin_layout Standard Generally, you would send email to lyx-foo-subscribe@lists.lyx.org to s= ubscribe to these lists or to lyx-foo-unsubscribe@lists.lyx.org to unsubscribe,= where =20 \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset foo \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset is one of=20 \begin_inset Quotes eld \end_inset announce \begin_inset Quotes erd \end_inset etc. Of course I can "parse" the language, but my untrained eye is unable to fluently read the text hiding behind it. Also, if I made a commit changing the "announce", you would have to turn up diff context to at least 13 lines to get any _semantic_ context of the change. =2D Thomas --nextPart1356167.zM00BnAThh Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEABECAAYFAkiS23UACgkQqUud07tmzP06cQCfaEOqmOtp7p6LQmXQQVkatXTN iVoAoIVXaG0MlUyHkJ1NlPQn/sbjABRa =vHuC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1356167.zM00BnAThh--
