It still goes to standard output if there is only one parameter,
right? Do we really want that? What about translating file.tex to
file.lyx? (and have - as special name for std output)

There are some reLyX options that may be useful too:

       -o  Output directory. With this option, all temporary files and LyX
           output files (for the given input file, for any included files, or
           for any file fragments given with the -p option) will be put into
           outputdir. Otherwise, for each file dir/foo.tex, the temporary
           files and the LyX output file will be created in dir. This can be
           useful if a file includes files from other directories which you
           want to consolidate in one directory, or if you don't have write
           permission on the directory the LaTeX files are in.

       -p  Partial file. The input files are LaTeX fragments, with no preamble
           matter or \begin{document} commands. This option requires the -c
           option, since there are no \documentclass commands in the files
           reLyX is translating. When using this option, you can translate
           more than one file, as long as all files are the same class. The
           LyX file created by reLyX can be included in an existing LyX file
           using the "Include LyX File" command from LyX's Insert menu.

and maybe (but not sure):

       -r  Regular environments (see the section on Syntax Files).  If you
           give more than one environment, separate them with commas (not
           spaces). You'll probably need to quote the environment list,
           especially if it has asterisk environments (foo*) in it. If you use
           this command often, considering creating a personal syntax file.


It seems that tex2lyx is already able to do -p internally, so it
should not be too difficult to implement.

Also Georg, the file symbols.default is now in lib/, and only tex2lyx
uses it. You are therefore free to do what you want with it. In
particular, it seems that reLyXre and reLyXmt could go away.
