What is the secret to using Lyx with Hebrew?

[Maxim Kovgan]

I used lyx by implementing the instructions from huji site about lyx.
what I got to was:
when I pressed F12 (IIRC), it *switched* language, both he->en and
en->he, depending on the current state.
I don't remember having to worry about anything else.

I don't understand exactly what do YOU wish to achieve ?
