that I found nothing evil in typing LaTeX code in the document body so
perhaps some other name than Evil Red Text would be appropriate, I
learned
to just ignore what ERT abbreiated and use it for my convenience.
So, *that's* what ERT stands for. I had gathered that it referred to
LaTeX code inserted into a LyX document, but I never knew how it got the
initials ERT. Echoes of the recent discussion about MWE (it took me a
while to figure out how an attached file would earn the acronym MWE).
And, then there was my even-older brother-in-law, who always ended his
emails with LOL (as in Lots of Love) until my wife asked him what he was
always laughing about.
