Ohhhhh,
Maybe I do understand it. Is a layout module just a chunk of debugged
LyX/LaTeX code that would normally go in a layout file, and gets included in
the layout file by reference? So you could mix and match layout modules to
get a more granular modularization, similar to #include in C?
Yes, pretty much. The thing about modules, however, is that they are
dynamically included via Document>Settings. You don't have to edit a
layout file to "Input" them. You can change them on the fly.
So is it a way to write once, use many times? Is it a way to use
known-debugged LyX/LaTeX code? And is it a way for all of us to trade
debugged and tested code without throwing in every silly little feature we
put in our book?
Absolutely.
