    let’s wait some days to have it in Ubuntu (for Lucid, the next release) as well.
    Thanks for your work!

    Your plugin is great, I use it a lot and work very productively with it. Localisation would be a nice feature.

    Hi, great job.
    Can I suggest something here? When it comes to the “use bibliography” dialog, the list of styles is way too long, its not sorted (it would help a lot) and there is no scrollbar, so I can’t know how long it is. Also, it would be _very_ halpful if I could select my own predefined bibliography style.
    Oh, yes, and I can’t change the accelerators.

    best
    Carlos

    I tried to install and use the plugin since it looked like a very useful one. But, it is not working. I tried to figure out what the problem is. But I do not too much about Python, and it looks like there is a problem somewhere in the code. When I try to enable the plugin I get the following error on the console:

    I hope you can find a solution for this. Because I want to use this useful plugin
    Thank you…

    Thanks for an amazing plugin! I’m in love with the outline feature but would love to control this more, including the ability to recognize user-defined counters. I have a counter for lectures, and a \lecture{heading} command – would love to have Outline list all my lectures, with sections and subsections beneath them.

    I love you for this plugin! Makes my day longer! But: am I too dumb or is there no documentation?
