22 * This class represents a particular LyX "module", which is a like a layout
23 * file, except that it does not stand alone. In that sense, it is more like
24 * a LaTeX package, where a layout file corresponds to a LaTeX class. Or, in
25 * LyX's own terms, a module is more like an included file that can be used
26 * with various document classes. The difference is that using a module only
27 * means selecting it in the Document>Settings dialog, whereas including a
28 * layout file means layout file editing.
30 * In general, a given module can be used with any document class. That said,
31 * one module may `require' another, or it may `exclude' some other module.
32 * The requires and excludes are given in comments within the module file,
33 * which must begin roughly so:
34 * #\DeclareLyXModule{Theorems (By Section)}
35 * #DescriptionBegin
36 * #Numbers theorems and the like by section.
37 * #DescriptionEnd
38 * #Requires: theorems-std | theorems-ams
39 * #Excludes: theorems-chap
40 * #Category: theorems
41 * The description is used in the gui to give information to the user. The
42 * Requires, Excludes, and Categofy lines are read by the configuration script
43 * and written to a file lyxmodules.lst in the user configuration directory.
44 * That file is then read on startup to populate the ModuleList, below.
46 * Modules can also be "provided" or "excluded" by document classes, using
47 * the ProvidesModule and ExcludesModule tags.
