Installing LyX/Cygwin
---------------------

1)  Install all the prerequisite packages (see README.txt)

2)  Download the cygwin setup program http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe
    and launch it.

3)  Choose "Install from Local Directory", leave the "Root Directory"
    pointing to your cygwin installation, and then choose as
    "Local Package Directory" the one containing this file.

4)  In the "Select Packages" view, you should see a LyX category. Click
    on the + to expand the category. Now you should see four packages
    listed: LyXwin, aiksaurus, dvipost, and latex2rtf.

5)  Click on the S-shaped icon labeled "Skip" for the LyXwin package to
    install it. Now you should see that "Skip" has changed to the version
    number and that aiksaurus and latex2rtf are also marked for installation
    (unless you have already installed them).

6)  If you want to also install dvipost, click on its S-shaped icon.
    Dvipost is a latex post filter to support change bars in postscript output.

7)  Once you made your choices, click on next to complete the installation.
    Please, be patient while the post-installation scripts are running.

8)  When the setup program finishes, you should edit the file /etc/lyxprofile
    to fill in your HOME directory, if it is not already set up in your system
    environment, and change the LANG variable if you want menus translated in
    your language. Possibly, you will also have to adjust OUTPUT_CHARSET if
    it doesn't match your character set, but the default value should be fine.

9)  LyX/Cygwin should now be installed.
