+Since LyX 2.1, LyX supports basic interactions with AppleScript for normal
+ communication through the command run.
+ This command takes a direct argument (the 
+\series bold
+function
+\series default
+ to perform) and an optional argument.
+ It either returns the output of the function or triggers an error with
+ the error message and code.
