Indeed, looks like a useful little program. I think that this info should go in the graphics section of the user guide. Of course, this section needs re-writing to describe the power of Baruch's graphics inset and how the user can make it work for him. Incidentally, I have some students here who have convinced themselves that LyX is better than MS word for writing theses (don't know who could have suggested that they try it ;-). Their stumbling block however is creating EPS figures from MS draw ones. Anybody out there know of such a tool?
