While waiting in hopes of a better method, I figured out a very crude down
and dirty work around...
First, as previously described, I wrap the section of the document I intend to
spellcheck with the the begin and end marker lines. {with or without the
deliberately misspelled garbage word} But it MUST stand out visually.
Then I open a garbage .lyx file and delete any existing content. Then I
switch back to the real file and mark & cut everything in between the
marker lines. Next I paste that into the garbage file and spellcheck that
file. When the spell checking is complete I can mark & cut the contents the
return to the real file, and paste the spellchecked content in between the
marker lines...
This at least works. But I shouldn't have to do it this way.
