I've been working on learning more about KOMAScript classes and found a
problem with the preamble that comes with the LyX koma-letter2 template
(and has for some time).

The preamble has a number of options in the \KOMAoptions section, including
these lines:

%pagenumber=botcenter%   position of the page number (see docu)
%,parskip=false%          Use indent instead of skip (more options cf. docu)
fromalign=center%        alignment of the address


The problem is that the first and third lines of this excerpt from the
preamble lack leading commas (the KOMAoptions are comma delimited).

If you uncomment the parskip option by removing the leading % then it gets
parsed together with the fromalign option (because fromalign lacks a
leading comma) and generates an 'undefined control sequence' error.

Another confusion is that 'parskip=false' is the default for this document
class. If you want a block style letter with no indents and a space between
paragraphs you need to change this option to 'parskip=true'.
