But one of the original ideas
was to have a small stand-alone tool that can be used to "use" .lyx
files without access to a full-blown LyX installation.
I don't think this is a good enough reason. People are using lyx at the
command line for exporting. I am pretty sure they could do the same for
importing. Thanks to the no-gui/gui separation (we only load QtCore), 'lyx
-e' is pretty cheap nowadays, so could be 'lyx -i'.
There is a problem as long as we instantiate a QApplication (as opposed
to a QCoreApplication) on *nix as this requires a connection to a
running X server which cannot be taken for granted in a pure batch
mode operations...
He he... but we don't instantiate neither of the two ;-)
Hint: We don't to start the event loop for '-e'
