I've skimmed the manual. Will take a closer look before I dump my next document
in lyx. I need a solution. Strange to me that lyx is inflexible in this way.
There's nothing unusual about LyX here. If I take this
this is "a quote"
and paste it into LibreOffice, I get exactly that, despite the fact that
typing a double quote there gives me an open or close quote, depending
upon context. This is really correct behavior. LyX should not (and does
not) prohibit you from entering the double quote character, if that is
what you want to do. As well you might if you were entering lengths, say.
