I did it! I added a shell template to my external_template. Now, I can
specify command in $$FName and parameters in $$Parameter and get
whatever `$$Fname $$Parameter` outputs.
My lyx file can not be opened on another machine but I do not really
care. With this functionality, everything can be automated so
portability is only a small price to pay.
