The way I've used lexpr is to simply say --export lexpr and if you've
specify -f dirname, it will write to /tmp/L.  You can change the filename
with lexpr,f=/tmp/foo and not use -f.  It's also possible to write to
raw/plot files at the same time using combinations of -f, -P and --rawtoo.
One other feature of lexpr some people may miss is you can also include
,s=xxx and it will only write data for the named subsystems to the lexpr
output file while continuing to write everything to plot and/or raw.

The only question, and this is for Peter, is when you wrote your lustre
plugin did you include code for handling exported data?  If not, this won't
work but I can certainly point you to some code that shows how to do this.
For example the PrintExport routine in hello.ph.
