The LyX developers made a conscious decision not to allow a LyX document to execute arbitrary python scripts. "LyX document as virus" is not the best way to make friends. However, the ExternalTemplate inset will load and execute certain "trusted" python scripts. See the file "external_templates" in the lib directory. If you were to modify and distribute that to your co-workers and they were trusting enough to use it, then you're away. Try the Insert->External Material... menu button. Regards, Angus
