Basic Philosophy
-\layout Standard

+\begin_layout Standard
The basic philosophy of LyX is that you should worry about the content of
what you're writing and not the form.

How LyX does it
-\layout Standard
+\end_layout
+\begin_layout Standard
LyX uses LaTeX, a document preparation system designed by Leslie Lamport
in 1985.
It, in turn, was built up from a typesetting language called TeX, created
by Donald Knuth in 1984.
LaTeX is designed around a philosophy similar to that of LyX.
Leslie Lamport once said (see reference
-\begin_inset LatexCommand \cite{lamport}
+\begin_inset CommandInset citation
+LatexCommand cite
+key "lamport"
-\end_inset
+\end_inset
):
-\layout Quote
+\end_layout
+\begin_layout Quote
The function of typographic design is to help the reader understand the
author's ideas.
For a document to be easy to read, its visual structure must reflect its
logical structure by typing special commands....
As you are writing your document, you should be concerned with its logical
structure, not its visual appearance.

LyX can be useful to more people than LaTeX.
It's considerably easier to learn, because you don't need to learn LaTeX
(which is practically a programming language).
LyX is basically like other

Also, the file format is platform independent.

I was able to remove the lines made with dashes.
They were there purely to separate the title and references from the rest
of the document.
LyX (LaTeX) knows enough to separate these parts of the document with space.

I didn't bother putting the math equations in display mode.
Also, I didn't use LyX' automatic equation numbering, because it's not
