tex2lyx Feature Request

[Dr Eberhard Lisse]

Hi,

I am doing an exercise of translating OpenOffice formatted files into
Lyx via pandoc and tex2lyx.

The LyX file is readable but when I use scrlettr it wants Koma Letter V1
which is not installed. I had to do

	 find /Applications/LyX.app/ -name 'scrl*'

to find

	 /Applications/LyX.app//Contents/Resources/layouts/scrlettr.layout
	 /Applications/LyX.app//Contents/Resources/layouts/scrlttr2.layout

and I found

	 pandoc --list-output-formats


so I wonder if one should not implement a similar switch like

	 --list-modules

or similar which would do just that and return something like

which was generated by

	 find /Applications/LyX.app -name  '*.layout' \
		  | awk -F'/' '{print $7}' \
		  | sort \
		  | sed 's/.layout//g'

and so will miss the .inc and .module there.


Would that make sense?
