People add the switch to the command line and forget about it.
IMHO a user who does batch processing is pretty advanced... Regarding setting something in the preference file manually: The only thing I mind is that it adds a global state to LyX, as opposed to starting LyX with some parameters. The global state would likely affect e.g. testing. /Christian > The requested operation requires the use of a converter from sweave to > pdflatex: > Rscript --verbose --no-save --no-restore $$s/scripts/lyxsweave.R $$p$$i > $$p$$o $$e $$r > This external program can execute arbitrary commands on your system, > including dangerous ones, if instructed to do so by a maliciously crafted > .lyx document. > Your current preference settings forbid its execution. > (To change this setting, go to Preferences ▹ File Handling ▹ Converters and > uncheck Security ▹ Forbid needauth converters.) That's a good message in my opinion, especially as it points out the "including dangerous ones".
