Bennett, I never answered to this message because Angus was busy butchering the init process at the same time... Nevertheless, the scripts are sound. I propose we return to that when Angus' work has landed.
That's what I assumed.
I have noticed a problem, though, with configuring lyx to add a version suffix. That suffix gets added to all the executables, so that I get not just lyx-13x but also noweb2lyx-13x, and reLyX-13x. However, it seems that when reLyX gets called, it gets called without the suffix: console returns, "sh: line 1: reLyX: command not found".
In any case, I need to do more thorough testing of the shell script on machines other than mine.
