Please see chapter 5 of the Customization manual. The process is
described there. In this case, you just need to wrap the preamble code
you want in:

EndPreamble
and then add the module declaration code at the top. Oh, and don't
forget the format tag, which must be the first non-comment,
non-whitespace line.

Create my own module
Dear LyX users,
I am using LyX 2.0.0 (on both Windows and Linux).
How can I create my own module and add it to the list in "Document
Settings"?
For instance, I have put the following commands in the preamble in order
to create a "balanced index"
\RequirePackage{multicol}
\renewenvironment{theindex}{
\columnseprule 0pt\relax
\columnsep 35pt\relax
\chapter*{\indexname}
\begin{multicols}{2}
\@mkboth{\MakeUppercase \indexname}{\MakeUppercase \indexname}
\thispagestyle{plain} \parindent 0pt\relax \parskip 0pt \@plus .3pt\relax
\let\item\@idxitem}
{\end{multicols}}
Nevertheless, if I were able to collect these commands in a module, I
could use them in a much easier way.
Thank you,
Francesco
