Hi
While waiting for my compilations to fail I've played with bash, writing a
script that basically runs:
lyx -c 'command-sequence ...'
Anyway, the script can be used like this:
euler:test-scripts>./time-lyx.sh
Syntax: time-lyx.sh [options] command-sequence
Example:
$ time-lyx.sh "lyx-quit;" > result.txt
$ time-lyx.sh "file-open UserGuide.lyx; lyx-quit;" > result.txt
(note you have to be in the same directory as UserGuide.lyx)
$ time-lyx.sh -I ~/.lyx/doc "file-open DOC/UserGuide.lyx; lyx-quit;"
Options:
-v Be more verbose
-n Only print commands, do not actually run lyx
-l lyx Name of lyx binary
-f- Clear list of configuration files to look for
-f config-file Name of additional configuration files to be
sourced. The default is to look for time-lyx.conf
in ./ and ./
-m descipriont A description string
-I ~/.lyx/doc Defines replacement for string 'DOC'
And I put the actual script here:
http://wiki.lyx.org/pmwiki.php/DevelScripts/TimeLyx
in case anyone else wants to try it.

PS. I've never written bash scripts before, so pointers/tips are welcome.
I'd especially like to know how to do the equivalence of ${VAR:q} in tcsh.
