I have created a patch that automatically sets up
LyxBlogger file formats and converter definitions for
both of the supported input types: LyXHTML and eLyXer.


For the LyXHTML format, it adds:
     \converter xhtml      xblog      "lyxblogger $$i"       ""
     \Format    xblog      blog       "LyxBlogger"           "" "" ""  
"document"


If eLyXer is installed, it also adds:
     \converter html       eblog      "lyxblogger $$i"       ""
     \Format    eblog      blog       "LyxBlogger (eLyXer)"  "" "" ""  
"document"


This patch makes LyX - LyxBlogger integration a breeze.
Would someone review this patch and commit the changes
if it meets your standards?

The patch seems fine, though I'm unsure about adding both these formats in order to add two sorts of conversion paths. We hope that 2.0 may contain some sort of ability to choose conversion paths, which would make this unnecessary. But even if it doesn't, we're generally unhappy with the use of multiple formats, such as our own pdf, pdf2, pdf3, and I'm not sure we want to make it worse. I know Jurgen hates how cluttered this can make the export menu.

So what I'd suggest is adding the LyX blogger format and the two converters. By default, the LyXHTML one would be chosen, since that will be a shorter path. But, as I said, both may be available, if we can finish the patch to which I alluded.
