+% Needs leaflet.cls
+% www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/leaflet/%
+
+% to get "leaflet.cls" working to LyX use the default "article.layout":
+%
+%   a. copy "leadlet.cls" in the directory where LyX looks for classes (".cls" files)
+%   b. copy "article.layout" as "leaflet.layout" in the directory where LyX looks for layouts
+%   c. edit the "leaflet.layout" and change the second line
+%       from "\DeclareLaTeXClass{article}"
+%       to "\DeclareLaTeXClass{leaflet}"
+%   d. reconfigure LyX

+What is GRASS
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+GRASS (Geographic Resources Analysis Support System) is a free and Open
+ Source Software for performing spatial analysis.
+ It consists of more than 350 modules for processing vector (2D/3D), raster
+ and voxel data.
+ Many interfaces to other programs in related domains like geostatistics,
+ databases, mapserver and even other GIS software exist.
+ It is the largest Open Source GIS.
+ It can serve as a Desktop GIS and as the backbone of a complete GIS Infrastruct
+ure.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Section*
+Where is GRASS used
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+GRASS is used in scientific applications, commercial settings and by public
+ authorities all over the world.
+ GRASS has shown strong potential for solving geospatial problems in numerous
+ situations world-wide.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Section*
+History
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+GRASS was originally developed in the beginning of the 1980's by the US
+ Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratories (USA-CERL) and was
+ published as public domain software.
+ When the USA-CERL withdrew from GRASS development, an international developer
+ team took over this work.
+ Since 1999, GRASS has been published as free software under the terms of
+ the GNU General Public Licence.

+Open Source Philosophy
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+The Open Source philosophy provides the user the ability to see the source
+ code and structure of the program which offers a great transparency.
+ Users can extend the program for their own needs.
+ Immediate source code peer review increases the quality.
+ With the help of the extension manager new modules can be created without
+ GRASS package source code.
