LyX format is a text format. Somehow similarly to LaTeX. It's advantage is that it can be more less easily recovered, when something go wrong. There was a version of LyX 1.5 where compression destroyed files. That is why it is not enabled by default and left for user to consciously enable it, when needed. -- Manveru jabber: [email protected] gg: 1624001 http://www.manveru.pl
