Solved!
I ended up with the following template:
Template LHS
GuiName "LHS: $$AbsOrRelPathParent$$Basename"
HelpText
Including Literate Haskell
HelpTextEnd
InputFormat lhs
FileFilter "*.lhs"
AutomaticProduction true
Format LaTeX
Product "\\input{$$AbsOrRelPathMaster$$Basename.tex}"
UpdateFormat pdflatex
UpdateResult "$$AbsPath$$Basename.tex"
ReferencedFile lhs "$$AbsPath$$Basename.tex"
FormatEnd
Format PDFLaTeX
Product "\\input{$$AbsOrRelPathMaster$$Basename.tex}"
UpdateFormat pdflatex
UpdateResult "$$AbsPath$$Basename.tex"
ReferencedFile lhs "$$AbsPath$$Basename.tex"
FormatEnd
Format Ascii
Product "\\input{$$AbsOrRelPathMaster$$Basename.tex}"
UpdateFormat pdflatex
UpdateResult "$$AbsPath$$Basename.tex"
ReferencedFile lhs "$$AbsPath$$Basename.tex"
FormatEnd
Format DocBook
Product "\\input{$$AbsOrRelPathMaster$$Basename.tex}"
UpdateFormat pdflatex
UpdateResult "$$AbsPath$$Basename.tex"
ReferencedFile lhs "$$AbsPath$$Basename.tex"
FormatEnd
TemplateEnd
Using a Document file format called LHS, shortname lhs and extension lhs.
I also added a single converter from LHS to LaTeX (pdflatex) with the command
lhs2TeX $$i -o $$o
LyX devs: please consider adding this template for inclusion in new LyX
releases :)
Cheers,
Jurriën
P.S.: it has received very limited testing so far, and it works for my
purposes. The ASCII and DocBook definitions probably don't make a lot of sense
right now.
