   First, take this to lyx-users. This is not a development issue.
No, but my original question was. Try to resist these twitches of developer rhetoric; 
they are SO closed-source.
   Do you have some version of latex installed?
Yes
   Have you read any of the docs?
Yes, dear. Don't be impertinent.
   Did you run Edit->Reconfigure from your home place?
Yes.
   .cls files have to be visible to latex. This means that you have tell
   latex about the lyx tex directory in (usually) /usr/local/share/lyx.
   Read .../TeTex/texmf/web2C/texmf.cnf
This is only vaguely documented in the docs. Thanks for the pointer.  I have done this 
now and the cls show up.
   At some point you will have to run texhash as user to get an Ls-R.
Why?
   Let me know how you do.
I do quite well.

PS Having to poke around to get the cls to show up showed me the answer to my original 
question; were you going to answer my original question? Your cls is not bad but is 
not strictly correct or tunable. You should look into the parameters used by 
FinalDraft or ScriptThing. Also Lyx does not seem to have the facility to insert the 
necessary "continued"s on the fly. Is this correct?  I will see what I can do by 
tweaking your files and will send them along if I come up with anything useful.

Thanks for the help.

Sincerely,
