I am not sure I understand what you mean? Could you send the original
lyx file and the faulty output you get?

Yes.

That's where I stop to understand ;) It does not seem to me that TeX
style uses ~. Unless I am really stupid (which is very possible), the
part of code that you change is _not_ triggered in TeX style:
} else if (font.latex() == LyXFont::OFF) {
! if (font.family() == LyXFont::TYPEWRITER_FAMILY) {
file += '~';

Testing explicitely for the name of the environment is certainly not a
good idea. However, once we get to know what the actual problem is,
we'll certainly manage to find a fix.
