Description : LyX is a modern approach to writing documents which breaks with the
: obsolete "typewriter paradigm" of most other document preparation
: systems.
:
: It is designed for people who want professional quality output
: with a minimum of time and effort, without becoming specialists in
: typesetting.
:
: The major innovation in LyX is WYSIWYM (What You See Is What You Mean).
: That is, the author focuses on content, not on the details of formatting.
: This allows for greater productivity, and leaves the final typesetting
: to the backends (like LaTeX) that are specifically designed for the task.
:
: With LyX, the author can concentrate on the contents of his writing,
: and let the computer take care of the rest.
