Hello, I just downloaded the 1.4.4-2 LyX package from Cygwin. There are some writing style issues in the Intro.lyx file that I wanted to notify the lyx-docs folks about.
Please locate the following paragraph (the next to last paragraph of Section 1.3) in document Intro.lyx. "LaTeX is the reason why LyX differs from other word processors. LyX is a graphical user interface (GUI) front end for LaTeX. It is designed to typeset documents with by using LaTeX without knowing its macro commands. But although LyX can't never support all commands graphically, it offers its usage, so that LyX is as functional as LaTeX." Consider revising the above paragraph to something like the following. "LaTeX is the backend to LyX, which makes LyX different from other word processors. As a graphical user interface (GUI) for LaTeX, LyX's purpose is to allow users to typeset documents with all the power of LaTeX without having to know the LaTeX macro commands. Although LyX does not provide GUI buttons for the complete set of LaTeX macros, it understands and renders the macro language, making LyX every bit as functional as LaTeX." Best regards, Jeff Barnes
