Not having tried LyX in at least three years, I just downloaded
and compiled version 1.0.2. Personally, I'm firmly committed to
regular LaTeX, but I was looking for something that might tempt
my wife and 13-year-old daughter away from MS word, and hence
minimize the rebooting requirements for the

Many times.
Also, many times, good things have come. We make mistakes from time to time.
But that should not stop us from making changes, IMO. If we are too afraid to

Finally!
I will work on this when I get back (see below), if Marc Mengel or someone
else doesn't beat me to it.
