Hi,
I think editing .lyx works for small non-structural changes. Be careful
with whitespace at the beginning of lines and line breaks in general.
Some are needed and some are forbidden, and it's usually not clear when
and why...
Just to satisfy my curiosity ;-)
Is there any place in the documentation or in the source code from
which a non C++ person (like me) with a bit of latex experience can
find a info on the file format of lyx documents?
The only real place to find this is in the source, where LyX files are
read, and even then the format is spread over several different files,
since reading e.g. the parameters of an inset is delegated to the
insets, more or less. So it's a matter of tracing all of that code.
