Thanks so much Christopher. I was indeed able to modify article to
helloworld. I hiccupped on the next step, where I renamed article.layout to
harticle.layout. My helloworld went away. There's something special about the
filename article.layout, but I couldn't find it:
$ find . -type f | xargs grep -i article
I ran the preceding on my machine's lyx directory and my personal .lyx
directory, and found nothing specifically identifying article.layout.
Also, I have no idea how to make a myarticle.sty file, and where to put it
when I've made it. What's the simplest myarticle.sty file I could make that
would change something so I know it's having an effect?
Thanks
Steve
