I only want to use the Windows graphics APIs (so that I don't need an X
server), but I want to be able to use symlinks, fifos, and unix domain
sockets. With a pure native Windows version of LyX I cannot use neither
the lyxpipe nor the lyxserver for IPC purposes (e.g., for doing a reverse
dvi search).
