Wasn't Ruurd talking about using some extension library that supported shell scripts directly? I'm a little vague here. But, more generally, if the name of the script is also configurable, then we're just outputing data to a black box. Make that black box a python script, a DOS batch file. Anything att all, so long as it's not LyX ;-) Angus
