Enrico, it would be wonderful to get your revisions on this script!
As you can see, it's not robust. And I agree it's wasteful if the
files already exist.
In support of inverse search, I made a few untested additions to my
script: see the new lyxinstall.sh and .diff.
Also attached is a very messy script I wrote for myself (not for use
elsewhere) to create a personal Cygwin package for SVN. I intend to
use this to install on other computers. This leads me to my next
question:
Is there any reason the following files aren't stored somewhere in SVN?
lyxeditor.c, lyx-win.c, lyxprofile, lyxrc.dist, setup.hint, etc.
It's really awkward for me to manually find/download/create all these
extra files.
Finally, a while back, you wrote:

For some reason, my copy of SumatraPDF returns the full path, even for
a pdf in ./. Since 1.6.4, I've had success with the following inverse
search command:
SumatraPDF.exe -inverse-search "\"C:\cygwin\usr\local\bin\lyxeditor\"
-g \"%f\" %l"
The quotes on %f are often necessary for some reason.
Also, we may want to mention on the wiki an alternative to
\usepackage{pdfsync} is the command line
pdflatex --synctex=-1 $$i
