I should have been a bit more specific...mdwlists has predefined compact environments called itemize* enumerate* and description* which reduce the interline spacing from the normal LaTex defaults. To enable these in LyX I made a LyX layout file called mdwlists.inc (attached) and then added the line "Input mdwlists.inc" to the stdclass.inc file. The result is that itemize* enumerate* and description* show up in the LyX pull-down menu for environment. Another useful feature is that the numbering does not automatically reset when you stop an enumerate* environment.
mdwlists has many other features that you can access via ERT.
