That's true for most OS X users, but not all.
If you want to use multi-platform programs, you have to put up with a
certain amount of non-Mac behavior. (As do Windows and Linux users, when
using programs primarily written to run on a different system.)
I'm just glad that LyX is available on OS X,

Happy New Year to you too. Glad you were able to find the LyX example files
you were looking for.
Spotlight doesn't index inside application bundles, so the Finder search
