Using Sixpack with LyX

Lyx is a very very nice WYSIWYM frontend for latex (and sgml, which is how this document is being written). Sixpack can communicate with LyX and insert references directly at the curser location. To do this

\serverpipe "/home/dirk/.lyx/.lyxpipe"
 

LYXPIPE = /home/dirk/.lyx/.lyxpipe.in

 

Notice that another, simpler though less flashy possiblity is to insert a citation into LyX manually, inserting

\cite{CITEID}
 

In TeX mode into LyX. Whichever you prefer, you need to then do the following:

Now when you create the document with lyx, you should have a bibliography, and all references correctly.
