I've been using LyX to take notes at the univiersity for 3 years, and it's very
good. I love it.
I've infected several my friends to do the same, don't you think LyX should be
promoted this way? It could even help to save the planet, no more paper needed!
I'm thinking to make a basic free course for anyone interested here.
The only problem is making figures you can't do (quickly) in XY-pic, and maybe
for exercises. But it's the best software I could imagine to take notes at
lesson, if you are quick enough with math-writing.
Do you have any idea on how to improve to possibility of creating figures
directly in LyX and with minimal use of the mouse?
The only thing I'll say is that you don't really have to use the mouse
to do anything. There are shortcuts for almost everything you might want
to do, and you can define new ones, if you wish, even quite complicated
ones, that would (say) fill in much of a XY-pic diagram for you.
