Valter,
 I used the indexing just as an easy way to pick out the words in my document
which I want to put in the glossary.

There might be better ways, and certainly better informed people around!

This is the procedure:
1-Go through the document and put the cursor immediately behind the word you
want to use in the glossary. Press first alt_i, than d (a shortcut for
Insert>Index-Entry): This produces a grey box idx behind the selected item.
Clicking on it shows the content (note that you have to add by hand if the
item consists of e.g. two words -or you remove the space between the two
words before indexing and put it in again afterward (same in the idx-box).

2-Go to the place where your index (and later the glossary) should occur,
 e.g. before the bibliography.
insert>list/TOC>index list
you won´t see anything in the index list yet.

3-export your file
file>export>latex(plain)
run three times
latex yourDocument.tex

the output contains:
No file yourDocument .ind.
No file  yourDocument.bbl.

but a file  yourDocument.idx is produced

4-run
makeindex
produces
 yourDocument.ind

Have a look with a normal editor
It shows e.g.


\begin{theindex}

  \item BibTeX, 1

  \indexspace

  \item inset, 1

\end{theindex}
 yourDocument.ind (END)

5- use this as the basis for your glossary.
