Awesome! You only failed to mention that I had to run the configure script to have the new language in the GUI menu (I like that expression).

De-selecting the "use babel" or the auto begin/end seemed to have no effect in the output as long as I had cleared those strings. Weird. Anyway, that's exactly what I needed. I wonder if I should add it to the manuals or the wiki. Thank you. LyX rocks. Luis.
