Hi, with LyX 1.4.2 the configure script has been rewritten in Python. With this script it's possible to detect and use kdeprintfax or ksendfax.
So I installed efax to take a look at it. The problem I see with efax and possibly hylafax aswell is that you need to give it the receivers fax number as a commandline parameter. As far as I can tell it's ATM not possible to enter the number within LyX so it's impossible to send a fax directly from LyX with efax. Options I can see ATM: a) Downgrade this bug to wishlist -> fwd to upstream b) Write and supply kind of a wrapper script with the LyX Debian package which asks for the fax number and sends the fax. Sounds like a candidate for Tcl/Tk but I don't know how the fax stuffs works and I've no test enviroment I could use to try it out. Opinions and/or other options you see?
