Versions for Cygwin
- If you use Cygwin on Windows, it may be more convenient to use the cygwin binary, since latex, python, etc. are all available from cygwin. You should download lyx-1.6.7-cygwin.tar.gz, un-tar it using Cygwin (not native) tools, and follow the instructions . See LyXOnCygwin for more information.
