Just starting with lyx, and looking for a way to grep the help docs.
Something more precise than a TOC, like grepping for precise RE.

One would expect at least a cumbersome and slow FIND/FIND NEXT on the
menu.  Even that would beat just plowing along.

But better to have some arrangement for precise RE searching.  At
least with the normal tools, but first we must know what files to look
in.  The rpm I have (yx-1.0.4-1), when listing the files I see nothing
that looks like a documentation file other than the man pages and
readmes.

Seems some unconventional doc type file is used.
The many *.lyx files are not where the manual is either I guess.

Similarly with the source tar.gz, I see no conventional docs directory.

How can a user do RE searches  of the docs.  It wasn't clear to me how
the Manual and User Guide are packaged.  In what format?  Surely there
is a way to do precise searching in the voluminous documentation.
