Dear comrades
I am a subliterate user, and was wondering if it was possible to
set user preferences so that the screen one is working on is not
justified on the right, but rather "ragged".
I noticed much discussion of justification in the past for the
printed material, but none for the screen.

In the default Article class, the standard indentation for List is pretty deep.

I have had the same problem with Lyx 1.5..2 on an Intel macbook.
I didn't have this problem with the earlier 1.5
When I open most of the help documents I get:

to see if the trouble I had had with rtf2latex2e

back. This time, my method of just trying them
all seems not

If your problem is the one familiar to me, then it isn't
(Fellow semi-beginner's response:)
I tried this with the different ways of viewing text
available to me on the mac with no problem.
I notice the LyX manual says, discussing the
text styles dialogue, (3.6.4):
Color: You can adjust the color of the
text with this control. Notice that not all dvi-
I see that you were trying to change the color of a Chapter Heading, in
particular. This does seem like a mess, easily reproducible by me; titles and
sections seem to work, though. Evidently a problem for the masters.
I am having similar problems with the lyx/tex connection.
For example if I export a default article to tex, which shows
up in Texshop as this:
%% LyX 1.5.4 created this file. For more info, see http://www.lyx.org/.
%% Do not edit unless you really know what you are doing.

Dear Charles your naive confidenc
Dear Charles,
It is very cool grasping how to use sed in however a primitive way. But on
further investigation it seems one needs it for a LyX friendly use of
``writer2latex'' only if the document has tables, math, images ... or French.
