Thank you Alan . I found the section in the manual (Chapter 4 of Customization). The example in your reference and the ones in the manual haven't worked exactly as described - but I have started burrowing into the src. The relevant files seem to be: LyXAction.C and lyxserver.C. when I print "LYXCMD:test:file-open:/path/to/myfile" > ~/.lyxpipe.in the command is echoed back exactly on ~/.lyxpipe.out The manual said it should reply "INFO:test:file-open:data" (I am getting back LYXCMD instead of INFO) LyX is not executing the file-open. So I am doing something wrong! There is a reference to development/server_monitor.c Does anyone know how I can get this? John O'Gorman
