TeXmacs is very, very impressive, but it is aimed squarely at the hard-core maths and science folks. Its similar to LyX in having classes such as book, article, letter etc,. and it does itemise, enumerate, description, tables etc just like LyX but without the easy to use pull-down menu. One thing that does stand out, compared with other Linux apps and especially LyX, is the interesting way it handles fonts. I haven't tried to use it to write a large text document, and from what I have seen, it would not be as easy to do it in TeXmacs as in LyX. Still, its one to keep an eye on, even if you are not a mathematician. Definitely give it a try.
