The examples mentioned in the tutorial are simply not present. I found an examples folder but now example files in there. They seem to miss in the installer of 1.5.1 for Mac UB.

Could you please this also at bugzilla.lyx.org?

You can download the examples from here:

http://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyx-devel/branches/BRANCH_1_5_X/lib/ examples

The problem on Mac is that all example files, templates, etc. are hidden within the LyX.app bundle. (They can be accessed if you control-click on LyX.app and select "Show Package Contents"; they're at LyX.app/Contents/Resources/examples.) Right now, the LyX-Installer will copy the default templates to ~/Library/Application Support/ LyX-1.5/templates/default so that they can be accessed easily. I've only done that for templates because in LyX > Preferences > Paths, there's a preference settings for the template path (but not, e.g., for examples).

It wouldn't be difficult to have the LyX-Installer copy examples over to the LyX user's directory. But I'm hoping to find a better solution that doesn't require a separate installer.

The other issue, of course, is providing clear documentation for where these things are.
