I am using the binary versions of lyx (rpm). I found this bug in lyx-1.1.3 but the same bug persists even after I've upgraded to lyx 1.1.4fix1. I've turned on the server. The server pipes are the defaults ".lyxpipe.in" and ".lyxpipe.out". When I send the command "buffer-new:" by the following method: echo "LYXCMD:test:buffer-new:" > .lyxpipe.in Lyx crashes after the dialog window closes (either by pressing "cancel" or entering any file name and pressing "enter").
