agreed!

one file would be so nice, because then you could search for a particular
keyword you are looking for without having to open all the different help
files. and since lyx/latex is so good at sectioning, it would be straight
forward to combine them all.

Dear lyxers,

don't know if this is the right list, but anyway: I have tried many
times to understand the logic behind the various help documents
(tutorial, user guide, extended features, ... and this list goes
on....), but now I've had enough -- did you know that branches are
explained not in extended features, no no no, but in the user's guide
under "more tools"? Note the subtle difference between "extended" and
"more", "features" and "tools". This is crazy!

I dare to claim that much of the traffic on this list exists because
many times somebody wants to RTFM, but -- which one? And not having
found the answer in the first (of the many) documents, she or he resorts
to the mailing list, where enough kind and helpful people know all the
documentation by heart. That's great, but it's also inefficient.

So please consolidate the documentation into one file (or let me do it).

I had to let off some steam, thou shalt not feel offended...

cheers,
Sven
