Hi!

I just filed a bug-report (#848) on the documentation relating to the IEEEtran
LaTeX reference. IEEE has themselfs updated the documentation as apparent from
their webpage:

http://www.ieee.org/organizations/pubs/transactions/stylesheets.htm

and the LyX documenation should reflect this fact (instead of the old/updated
links apparent in at least LyX 1.2.2).

I also point out that it would be a good thing to have a minimal note on how to
install these (and other publisher-specific) LaTeX styles. As I write this now
it could even be aided by some small dialogue window, shouldn't be too hard
anyway. I'm somewhat of an TeX/LaTeX-illiterate (have the books, lacks time
to actually read and experiment, one of those "some day" projects) and I
suspect several LyX users in reality is that too, just relying on LyX to hide
all that one way or another, or at least get a good deal of help.
So, a step-by-step description for braindead monkeys like me to execute would
be very nice to have. If you run the LyX and TeX/LaTeX from some form of
Linux distribution like I do (Debian/unstable) you don't know much about the
innars of the installation and configuration.

PS. Not on the list, so keep me explicitly CCed!

Cheers,
Magnus
