I have a 180+ page book with many (probably over 500) character

I want to have styles defined for:
filenames
command names
command line options
configuration options
command output (I just use lyxcode for that)
command input
etc..
Currently I am just using stuff like typewriter, italics (or emphasis),
bold, ... but whenever I want to try something different I will have to
change hundreds of things. So I want to be able to identify something as a
"filename" or "command" for example.
Any examples?
Look at the stdcharstyles.inc file, which you'll find in e.g.
/usr/share/lyx/. You'll need to define yours in a similar way (or use
this one), and then include the file in a custom layout file. This can
be as simple as:
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[article.cls]{article (mine)}
Input article.cls
Input mycharstyles.inc
Put this in your user layout directory (e.g., /home/you/.lyx/layouts/),
reconfigure LyX, choose it, and you're off.
Or why does Google have Playground indexed if it is a practice sandbox?
Because Google's search bots aren't yet perfect.
