lyx and noweb - build-program on toolbar

[Bill Welch]

I'm stuck setting up lyx so I can use noweb. I'm changing the toolbar as suggested in "Extended Features" 6.5.3.4, but build-program doesn't seem to do anything and I don't know how to troubleshoot it further. Here's what I've done so far

* compiled and installed lyx 1.2.2 from source rpm on RedHat 8.0 with xforms-1.0-Release libraries

* installed noweb from rpm

* created ~/.lyx/lyxrc where I put only this line for a Kayvan style build script:
\converter literate program "build-script $$i" "originaldir,parselog=listerrors"

build-script:
#!/bin/sh
notangle -Rbuild-script $1 | env NOWEB_SOURCE=$1 sh

build-script works fine on listerrors.nw exported from lyx (opened listerrors.lyx, saved locally, File => Export => NOWeb)

* Put build-script in ~/.lyx/scripts and made executable

* created ~/.lyx/ui/default.ui to add build-program to toolbar:
Toolbar
.
.
Icon "build-program"
Icon "layout Standard"
.
.

* reconfigured and restarted

* erased listerrors in local directory, opened listerrors.lyx, pressed build-program icon, get no change to file system (there should be a new listerrors somewhere, right?). The layout Standard button I added works as expected

* OptItem build-program isn't visible in the View menu

* When I open a new document, I do get the noweb choices as described in section 6.5.3.1

Same symptoms with noweb2lyx.lyx.

I think that what ever it takes to 'light up' the view->build-program menu item is the key.
