I have tried this method. I figured out how to write scripts and put the formats into LyX, and how to debug LyX. But LyX just will not run my script. I get the message 14:15:31.593: The process failed to start. Either the invoked program is missing, or you may have insufficient permissions to invoke the program. 14:15:31.720: Successful export to format: Exportsupport/Systemcall.cpp (276): Systemcall: 'LExport.sh $$r "test.tex"' did not start! support/Systemcall.cpp (277): error The process failed to start. Either the invoked program is missing, or you may have insufficient permissions to invoke the program. I have tried to put the scrip inside the LyX scripts directory, and outside. I can run it from terminal. But when LyX tries to run it, the above happens. Any ideas from anyone? It's all on a Mac.
