Hi everybody,

I am trying to write a shell script to compile individual LyX files 
automatically. I was able to find on  

http://wiki.lyx.org/FAQ/ImportExport

that one can use:

lyx --export FORMAT myfile.lyx

I tried that and I get there error that the command “lyx" can not be found
-bash: lyx: command not found

It seem it it is not in my binary path. The problem might be that I am working 
on a Mac (OS 10.9.4). However, I was not able to locate lyx in order to add the 
right path in front of the command.
If found it int "Applications/_ifi_applications/LyX/Contents/MacOS/lyx”, but I 
am not able to access it even with the full path. 
When I copy it with the finder to the folder where I need it, I get a link 
(alias), however, it tells me that I don’t have permissions, although I do have 
reading and writing permission ( for the link and for the original command).
Now I am stuck…. 

Any help is very much appreciated!

Thank you!

All the best,
Helmut
