-In case you are wondering what LyX is:
-
-  LyX is a document processor that encourages an approach to writing based 
-  on the structure of your documents and not simply their appearance.
-
-  LyX combines the power and flexibility of TeX/LaTeX with the ease of use of 
-  a graphical interface. This results in world-class support for creation of 
-  mathematical content (via a fully integrated equation editor) and structured 
-  documents like academic articles, theses, and books. In addition, staples of 
-  scientific authoring such as reference list and index creation come standard. 
-  But you can also use LyX to create a letter or a novel or a theatre play or 
-  film script. A broad array of ready, well-designed document layouts are built 
-  in.
-
-  LyX is for people who want their writing to look great, right out of the box. 
-  No more endless tinkering with formatting details, “finger painting” font 
-  attributes or futzing around with page boundaries. You just write. On screen, 
-  LyX looks like any word processor; its printed output — or richly cross-
-  referenced PDF, just as readily produced — looks like nothing else.
