+\begin_layout Section
+Normal communication
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+To issue a LyX call, the client writes a line of ASCII text into the input
+ pipe.
+ This line has the following format:
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Quote
+LYXCMD:
+\emph on
+clientname
+\emph default
+:
+\emph on
+function
+\emph default
+:
+\emph on
+argument
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Description
+clientname is a name that the client can choose arbitrarily.
+ Its only use is that LyX will echo it if it sends an answer—so a client
+ can dispatch results from different requesters.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Description
+function is the function you want LyX to perform.
+ It is the same as the commands you'd use in the minibuffer.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Description
+argument is an optional argument which is meaningful only to some functions
+ (for instance, the
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+self-insert
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+ LFUN will insert the argument as text at the cursor position).
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+The answer from LyX will arrive in the output pipe and be of the form
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Quote
+INFO:
+\emph on
+clientname
+\emph default
+:
+\emph on
+function
+\emph default
+:
+\emph on

+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+where
+\emph on
+clientname
+\emph default
+ and
+\emph on
+function
+\emph default
+ are just echoed from the command request, while
+\emph on
+data
+\emph default
+ is more or less useful information filled according to how the command
+ execution worked out.
+ Some commands, such as
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+font-state
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+, will return information about the internal state of LyX, while other will
+ return an empty data-response.
+ This means that the command execution went fine.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+In case of errors, the response from LyX will have this form
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Quote
+ERROR:
+\emph on

+\emph default
+:
+\emph on
+function
+\emph default
+:
+\emph on

+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+where the
+\emph on

+\begin_layout Section
+Notification
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+LyX can notify clients of events going on asynchronously.
+ Currently it will only do this if the user binds a key sequence with the
+ function
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+notify
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+.
+ The format of the string LyX sends is as follows:

+\begin_layout Plain Layout
+NOTIFY:
+\end_layout
+
+\end_inset

+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+where
+\emph on
+key-sequence
+\emph default
+ is the printed representation of the key sequence that was actually typed
+ by the user.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+This mechanism can be used to extend LyX's command set and implement macros.
+ Bind some key sequence to
+\begin_inset Quotes eld
+\end_inset
+
+notify
+\begin_inset Quotes erd
+\end_inset
+
+.
+ Then start a client that listens on the output pipe, dispatches the command
+ according to the sequence, and starts a function that may use LyX calls
+ and LyX requests to issue a command or a series of commands to LyX.
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Section
+The simple LyX Server Protocol
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+LyX implements a simple protocol that can be used for session management.
+ All messages are of the form
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Quote
+LYXSRV:
+\emph on
