Hi all,
Please take a look at the LyX Quickstart page at
http://www.troubleshooters.com/lpm/200210/200210.htm, and if appropriate,
include it in the "English sites" section of your "Internet Resources" page
at http://www.lyx.org/internet/.
The LyX Quickstart page is a tutorial that walks through LyX's key points,
starting with a "Hello World" document, writing a letter, installation,
documentation resources, book writing, table of contents, graphics and
tables, and cross references.
It discusses creating a layout, starting with simple layouts and proceding to
fairly complex environment creation.
All the preceding are available on other Internet pages, but the LyX
Quickstart page contains material to aid in LyX and LaTeX understanding for
the publishing newbie. The "Understanding LyX Through Contrasts" section
helps the reader know where LaTeX ends and LyX starts, as well as discussing
Fine Tuning vs. Consistency, Graphical Layout Specification vs. Numeric
Layout Specification, Word Processors vs. Content Authoring Tools, Using
Styles vs. Creating Styles, Default vs Created Styles, Character Styles vs.
Paragraph Styles, LyX the Language vs. LyX the Front End, and LyX Code vs.
LaTeX Code.
The LyX Quickstart also has an entire section devoted to LyX Code vs. LaTeX
Code, and another section Learning by Reverse Engineering -- a technique that
until now was used only by advanced LyX users.
Thanks
Steve
