Yes, see chap. 7 Program Code Listings of the EmbeddedObjects manual 
that you find in LyX's help menu.

Thank you, that is exactly what I am looking for. I see, that it is also
possible to chose a language and lyx highlightens the keywords. That is
nice!

But I only want to write Pseudecode. Which of these available languages
suits for that?

Another question: Is it possible to write mathsymbols into this environment?
CMD-M (MacOSX) doesn't seem to work...

It depends on whether you want keywords (such as if or for) highlighted
by a special font.  If no, then you can leave the language box at no language
selected.  If yes, you want to look for a language that considers the 
keywords in your pseudocode to be reserved words.  You might try Python or
maybe sh to start.  I typically use no language or else experiment.

Go to the advanced tab of the listing settings dialog and put mathescape=true in
the right side pane.  You will need to enter the math in raw LaTeX, not using
the math editor.  A trick I use is to use the math editor to type the
math in a math inset, then copy it and paste it into the listings box.  (I
still have to supply the dollar signs myself.)

This depend on the keywords that listings should recognize. Personally, 
I use Pascal for writing pseudocode.

This is possible, see the attached LyX file:

- set the option
  mathescape = true
  for the listing
- create the formula outside of the listing
- copy the content of the formula (not the formula inset) to the
  clipboard via Ctrl-c
- in the listing write
  $$
  and paste between the dollar signs via Ctrl-v

I'll add this info to the manual for LyX 1.6.8.
