That's very good.

Yes, I goofed. I changed it in cvs.

Applied.

Applied. Note that you do not even need to use
--prefix=/Applications/LyX.app when configuring. Actually, we could do
something about LDFLAGS too. We'll see later.

It seems correct, but of course I cannot run it.

A few lines below it says:
  * It is possible to use Ctrl-PageDown and Control-PageUp (<cmd>-tab
    and <cmd>-backtab with Qt/Mac) to switch between the open documents.

Is that good enough?
