Dear Liviu,

I did. The trouble is, as I said from the start, I am practically
Latex-illiterate, so the Latex techniques are pretty much useless to me at the
moment - I can't apply them to LyX. I tried some basic stuff, like modifying the
Latex preamble with what I could find on the Internet, but that, of course, did
not work.

There is a very promising link was about writing in Devanagri using LyX and
XeLatex
(http://www.wikihow.com/Create-Devanagari-Documents-in-Lyx-Using-Xelatex). Now,
if writing in Devanagri is possible, writing in old Russian should also be a
piece of cake. If only somebody walked me through it. But for that somebody
needs to actually use old Russian characters in their routine writing in Lyx. I
hoped such a person existed, but apparently I was wrong :-(

Now
