Using the following script:
sed 's/^\\par.*$//' "$@" |
sed 's/\\shead/\\section\*/g' | # these three are tr2latex macros
sed 's/{IPlist}/{enumerate}/g' |
sed 's/\\IPitem/\\item/g' |
sed 's/^\%\.Th [ ]*\([^ ]*\)/\1th/g' # custom macro Th
and changes to tr2latex so \fP outputs not \rm, but \rm\md\upshape, I
get good latex output that loads perfectly into LyX with Import/Latex.
Latex file attached.
