It will write the relevant files to the current working directory, so make sure you are where you want to be when you call it. Where do you want to be? Normally, your user directory. But you might have multiple ones of those. Must you run it as root? No. Riki -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users

Re: Reconfigure from script
if LyX is running you can save all open buffers to disk and then quit by way of something like (multiple levels of double quotes are required (on the Mac due to the space in ~/Library/Application Support/Lyx-2.3)) pushd "$(dirname "$(find ~/Library -name .lyxpipe.in -type p)")" echo "LYXCMD:test:buffer-write-all" > .lyxpipe.in echo "LYXCMD:test:lyx-quit" > .lyxpipe.in and then (on the Mac) /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/Resources/configure.py osascript -e 'tell application id "org.lyx.lyx" to activate' or (on Linux, but since I use the Mac it's not tested) configure.py lyx & and on all popd greetings, el On 19/02/2023 20:35, Richard Kimberly Heck wrote: > On 2/18/23 18:11, Mark Livingstone wrote: >> Hi People, >> >> I am using LyX 2.3.7 on Mac OS Ventura. >> >> Is it possible to run reconfigure from script in the terminal, if so >> how? > > Just execute the file configure.py.
