Hello, Alex
Bueno, esta lista es en inglés, así que Thank you for this new
release- I am having this issue to report:

address@hidden elyxer-0.98]# python install.py
eLyXer installed as a binary in /usr/bin
Please run as "elyxer.py [options] input.lyx output.html" to use it
running install
running build
running build_py
running install_lib
byte-compiling /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/elyxer.py to elyxer.pyc
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/elyxer.py", line 5166
    finally:
          ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
eLyXer installed as a module.
You can also run eLyXer as "python -m elyxer [options] input.lyx output.html"
address@hidden elyxer-0.98]# python -V
Python 2.4.3

Elyxer 0.98 runs and generates HTML however. I intend to translate to
HTML a LyX document in the Springer's LNCS class. Elyxer performs
pretty well, just some small quirks (maybe it is my fault after all):

- I have a two-lines AUTHOR inset (broken with a hard-new line) which
is correctly typeset and centered (both lines). However, at foot of
the page, the Copyright sign includes only authors up to end of first
line.
- I have an INSTITUTION inset after the title, which does not get
centered (I see it left-aligned). Under this is a line for email
addresses (I am unable to properly format authors' email adresses into
LNCS class in LyX), this line also is left-aligned even when centered
in my LyX text.
- Images are numbered like 0.X (don't know if there's an option to
this, I'll look deeper later)
- Not a bug, just something to think about - I included PNG images,
they look too wide. I had given options to their width or height in
terms of text percentage. Perhaps Elyxer is just honoring my
percentage I asked for. However, width on an A4 and on a browser page
are very different. Maybe just left them unchanged?

I am running CentOS 5.5 just updated today FWIW.
Thank you again, salud
