+\\end_layout
+
+\\begin_layout Standard
+This manual documents the 
+\\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\\end_inset
+
+LyX Functions
+\\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\\end_inset
+
+ (abbreviated LFUNs).
+ These are commands that are used to make LyX perform specific actions.
+ LyX itself uses these functions internally, and every internal action is
+ bound to an LFUN.
+\\end_layout
+
+\\begin_layout Standard
+LFUNs are also used in the files that define keyboard shortcuts, menu or
+ toolbar items.
+ So if you want to change\\SpecialChar \\slash{}
+customize the user interface, you need to deal
+ with LFUNs.
+ Furthermore, external programs can use LFUNs to communicate with and 
+\\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\\end_inset
+
+remote-control
+\\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\\end_inset
+
+ LyX.
+ Finally, you can also issue LFUNs directly via the so called mini-buffer
+ which can be opened via 
+\\begin_inset Info
+type  "shortcuts"
+arg   "command-execute"
