LaTeX cannot handle LyX files, but LyX exports latex files. In fact,
if you do File->Update_DVI, LyX will output a latex file, run latex
and show yu the result on screen. If you want to get a human-readable
latex file, you should use File->Export->LaTeX.

John> 2) Where can I find the LaTeX2LyX utility?

If you grab lyx-1.0.0pre8 at ftp.lyx.org, you will have a new menu
option 'Import LaTeX'. This uses the improved reLyX script, which does
a reasonable good job at reading latex files (not perfect, of course).

These PS files are generated through latex already. It is just that an
additional step is executed: dvi (latex output format) is converted to
PS.
