Package: lyx (1.4.3-3)

High Level Word Processor

LyX is an almost WYSIWYG-frontend for LaTeX that runs under the X Window System. It makes the power and typesetting quality of LaTeX available for people who are used to word processors. Since LyX supports LaTeX's concept of general mark-ups, it is even easier and faster to create professional quality documents with it than with usual word processors. It is also possible to use LaTeX-commands within LyX, so nothing of LaTeX's power is lost.

You can extend the functionality of LyX by installing these packages:

 * dvipost: display tracked changes in the dvi output
 * kdeprint or lpr: a printing tool
 * konqueror or www-browser: allows to view HTML documents
 * kghostview or postscript-viewer: allows to view PostScript documents
