Whatever the meaning of ERT (I still like the old meaning, btw) the
previous entry correctly stated that the commands should be in ERT.
It is not the same as TeX-code, because the following (where [[ and ]]
delimit ERT)

[[\input{]]name[[}]]

is TeX-code which is not (fully) in ERT. This will not work, whereas the
following

[[\input{name}]]

will work. The entry was correctly stating this fact but replacing ERT
with TeX-code makes it incorrect.
