As I wrote previously, you could/should save your preferences in LyX,
which would create the ~/.lyx/preferences file.  To test why your
Start-LyX is not finding the lyxpipe from a csh, do:

        % sh

That will give you a Bourne shell, where you can run the two commands
I sent previously:

        $ bogus=`perl -n -e 'print,exit if s/^.serverpipe\\s+\"(.+)\"/$1/;' 
~/.lyx/preferences /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/lyx/preferences`
        $ echo $bogus

If you don't get "/Users/gosset/.lyx/.lyxpipe" there is something
wrong with your perl installation or perhaps with permissions on your
machine.
