And here's why it worked for me and not you: I typed in the underscores, and LyX cleverly escaped them as \_\_ (ad nauseum). I'm guessing you pasted them in or imported them as text, and got just underscores, no escapes.



Hm...

LyX really should behave identically in both cases. It should not produce a different output from *typing" weather *inserting* some text.

According to my experience LyX 1.5 versions (it may as well be just a Mac problem...) generally suffer from strange effects that something that looks identically in the LyX editor in fact produces different LaTeX code, which is "surprising" at best for the user. I am still suffering twice a day from the "funny invisible chars" problem without really understanding how these chars make it into my document:

Maybe it is time to open a bugzilla entry for this?
