John -- has anyone started character styles yet? This is just a wild guess,
but could it be accomplished by a translation to
\begin{\whatever}\begin{\whichever}text to
format\end{\whichever}\end{\whatever}?
So maybe in the LyX file, it would look like this:
I want character styles
\begin{\charstyle{shout}}
big time
\end{\charstyle{shout}}
, because they're so vital to today's authoring.
Then, assuming shout is defined as Largest and Bold, perhaps LyX could
translate the begin to \begin{LARGE}\begin{bfseries} and end to
\end{bfseries}\end{LARGE}
Does that look doable to you?
Thanks
Steve
