Thanks Pavel.

It works like this: for certain predefined key sequences like => typing
the sequence will lead to a \Rightarrow appearing in Math.

Unfortunately I don't have a working lyx in svn now... no working
account. So I cannot check how it works. What I remember is that you
can leave autocorrect mode by pressing <space> and re-enter it by
pressing <!>.

The sequences recognized are listed in lib/autocorrect.

BTW Some guys at Turku University have implemented a facility for
writing structured derivations (i.e., math text with collapsable
subderivations etc. etc.) in LyX. Looks quite impressive. The source is
here:

Would there be an interest in having this in trunk?
