LyX automagically typesets words like TeX and LaTeX using the special logo for those words. How do I turn this behavior off? There are a couple of places, such as an instruction to navigate to /Applications/TeX, where I want the words to appear more like they actually do in the computer interface.

Hi, Is there any way of exporting a LyX document to OpenDocument or Word? In LyX you can add the export to your menu but that only seems to change the file extension, and not converting anything. I also saw that there is a script "tex4ht". But how do I install this? I'm running LyX on FreeBSD 7.1
