What you put in the title environment becomes a \title command. (See the stdtitle.inc file: The LatexType for Title is: Command.) So you end up with \title{Whatever} in the LaTeX file. This seems to do little more than set [EMAIL PROTECTED] to whatever, and then that variable is used in \maketitl

LyX Title environment

Hi all, Now that we've been discussing it, the LyX Title environment is fascinating, to say the least. Instead of printing directly, I deduce that it fills some LaTeX variable that gets printed by the maketitle command or whatever. How do they do that? I've looked at the book.cls code, and get

Were the prior list entries indented? That is, did you increase the environment depth of those? No, the depth is the same. If I place the cursor at the end of the text for any particular bibliography entry and hit return, I get, for example, key-2 [1] in gray. I get the number [1] no matte
