For the TeX (or LaTeX) expert you can still indulge your love of (or need for)
the arcana of the TeX language and LaTeX macros for special effects and
tinkering via LyX's Evil Red TeX (ERT) dialogue box.
IMHO I don't think its such a good idea to tell new people about the
"Evil" ERT box at such an early stage. The "Evil" in ERT is quite cute
but may be off-putting to potential users of the product if a feature
thereof is "evil", i.e. difficult to use.
One can possibly only mention that LyX has a mechanism that allows one
to use TeX directly if one would like to.
As for the "improved" text - its all good :)
I am, personally, not one for convincing new users on the merits of a
product through a whole lot of "arm waving" but I can see the benefits
thereof. Thus, either of the two paragraphs will work for me, although
John's version will probably attract more people.
Great suggestion.
