I have just upgraded from 1.4.4 to 1.5.0 RC1 - Great. 

I have a file created with 1.4.4 with following preamble statements to get 
section prefixes in equation, algorithm and figure numbering:

.........................................................
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
  \renewcommand{\theequation}{\thesection.\arabic{equation}}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
  \renewcommand{\thealgorithm}{\thesection.\arabic{algorithm}}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
  \renewcommand{\thefigure}{\thesection.\arabic{figure}}
\rfoot{Graham W. Griffiths}
\lfoot{\today}
.........................................................


When I open with 1.5.0 the preamble has been changed to:

.........................................................
LaTeX commands.
\floatstyle{ruled}                  ???
\newfloat{algorithm}{tbp}{loa}      ???
\floatname{algorithm}{Algorithm}    ???

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Textclass specific LaTeX commands.


%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% User specified LaTeX commands.

  \renewcommand{\theequation}{\thesection.\arabic{equation}}

  \renewcommand{\thealgorithm}{\thesection.\arabic{algorithm}}
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
  \renewcommand{\thefigure}{\thesection.\arabic{figure}}
\rfoot{Graham W. Griffiths}
\lfoot{\today}


\makeatother
..........................................................

I am new to LyX and Latex and would be grateful if someone could explain what 
the new lines marked with ??? mean. 

Also, is there any documentation that I should read that explains how best to 
use preamble?

Thanks
