xtraeme 6eeb25b461 Initial import of lyx-1.5.3, latest stable version that uses the QT4
toolkit.

LyX 1.5.0 is the culmination of 15 months of hard work since the release of
the LyX 1.4 series. We sincerely hope you will enjoy the result. The changes
are too numerous to summarize in a few words, but initial unicode support is
the flagship among the new features.

As usual with a major release, a lot of work that is not directly visible
has taken place. The core of LyX has seen more cleanups and some of the new
features are the direct results of this work.

LyX is a wordprocessor frontend to LaTeX, which gives both the
ease-of-use of a wordprocessor, and the flexibility and power of
LaTeX.
Quasi-WYSIWYG interface, many LaTeX styles and layouts automatically
generated. Speeds up learning LaTeX and makes complicated layouts
easy and intuitive. Features include spell-checking, international
character support, WYSIWYG graphics, tables, and equations.
This version of LyX uses the Qt toolkit for the graphical interface.
