+Copiers may also be used for other purposes.
+ For example, if appropriate converters are found, LyX will automatically
+ install copiers for the html and wordhtml formats.
+ When these formats are exported, the copier sees to it that not just the
+ main HTML file but various associated files (style files, images, and the
+ like) are also copied, and all these files are written to a subdirectory
+ of the directory in which the original LyX file was found.
+ The copier may of course be customized.
+ The optional -e argument takes a comma-separated list of extensions to
+ be copied; if it is omitted, all files will be copied.
+ The -t argument determines the extension added to the generated directory.
+ By default, it is
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+LyXconv
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+, so HTML generated from
+\family typewriter
+/path/to/filename.lyx
+\family default
+ will end up in
+\family typewriter
+/path/to/filename.html.LyXconv
+\family default
+.
