That is excellent. It works perfectly! And I love being able to push the citations from JabRef to LyX now!
Some comments: (1) The wiki probably needs updating with this information. (2) In the Additional Features document they write: These are usually located in UserDir and have the names “lyxpipe.in” and “lyxpipe.out” with footnote: On Windows, local named pipes are special objects located in \\.\pipe I did not see this footnote on first pass and assumed that lyxpipes were regular files (esp. when I read that on Linux it looks like a regular directory with /home/myhome/lyxpipe). This is the first time I have come across pipes so it was quite a new concept to me. Perhaps the wiki could make this a bit clearer and explain what is going on as it is not hard to set this up, just confusing to a first time pipe user on Windows.
