| '''LyX''' (styled as '''<math>\mathbf{L}\!{}_\mathbf{\displaystyle Y}\!\mathbf{X}</math>''') is an [[open-source software|open source]] [[document processor]] based on top of the [[LaTeX]] [[typesetting]] system. Unlike most [[word processor]]s, which follow the [[WYSIWYG]] ("what you see is what you get") paradigm, LyX has a [[WYSIWYM]] ("what you see is what you mean") approach, where what shows up on the screen is only an approximation of what will show up on the page.
| |
| | |
| Since LyX largely functions as a front-end to the LaTeX typesetting system, it has the power and flexibility of LaTeX, and can handle documents including books, notes, theses, to academic papers, letters, etc. Knowledge of the LaTeX markup language is not necessary for basic usage, although a variety of specialized formatting is only possible by adding LaTeX directives directly into the page.
| |
| | |
| LyX is popular among technical authors and scientists for its advanced mathematical modes, though it is increasingly used by social scientists and humanities scholars as well<ref>{{cite web|url=http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LinguistLyX|title=Lyx for Linguistics}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/HumanitiesLyX|title=Lyx for Humanities}}</ref> for its bibliographic database integration<ref name="Lyx features">{{cite web|url=http://www.lyx.org/Features|title=Lyx features}}</ref> and ability to manage multiple files.<ref name="Lyx features"/> LyX has also become popular among [[self-publishing|self-publish]]ers.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/9085|title=LyX and Lulu}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/ProducedPublications|title=LyX produced publications}}</ref>
| |
| | |
| LyX is available for various operating systems, including [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]], [[OS X|Mac OS X]], [[Linux]], [[UNIX]], [[OS/2]] and [[Haiku (operating system)|Haiku]]. LyX can be redistributed and modified under the terms of the [[GNU General Public License]] and is thus [[free software]].

| ==History==
| |
| [[Matthias Ettrich]] started developing a shareware program called Lyrix in 1995. It was then announced on [[USENET]], where it received a great deal of attention in the following years.
| |
| | |
| Shortly after the initial release, Lyrix was renamed to LyX due to a name-clash with a word processor produced by the company [[Santa Cruz Operation]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://groups.google.com/group/comp.os.linux.development.apps/browse_thread/thread/aadd303eacc56148/d93ee9d5edc37f86|title=WANTED: Name for Wordprocessor (comp.os.linux.development.apps)|accessdate=2010-10-15}}</ref> The name LyX was chosen because of the file-suffix '.lyx' for Lyrix files.<ref>[http://www.lyx.org/misc/archaeology LyX Archaeology]</ref>

| | |
| ==Pronunciation==
| |
| According to the project's wiki, the developers pronounce LyX as {{IPA-de|ˈlɪks|}}, like the English word "licks", or {{IPA-de|ˈlʏks|}}.<ref>[http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/Pronunciation FAQ/Pronunciation], LyX Wiki. Retrieved 4 April 2008.</ref>
