Yes, but how it work? And what exactly can be done? I'm interested to add mathematica support but I'd like have more information about what has been already done. I had a look at the files src/mathed/math_extern.[Ch] but as I don't know what I'm looking for, it doesn't realy help. > > So, where can find the list with explanations of the lyx's commands.
