The dollar sign should indicate you're on a command line prompt and you have to start entering the command with /Application/... I'd guess you get "command not found" when in directory /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS because modern Unix don't have the current directory in PATH environment. You have to type ./tex2lyx then.
