The controls are described in hello-world-in.txt as
CO: for control file open for write
CN: control notice
CP: simple search pattern
CR: regex search pattern
CC: close control file
The control-file will be used at the end of test by searchPatterns.pl
script (if any) also when LyX is not installed on your system
(using a variant of the trick suggested by Enrico, i.e., create a symlink
locale from the LyX sources root to an autotests/locale folder).
At least, it does on Linux.

As of now, I plan to add a few regression tests for the Advanced Find & Replace using this engine.
It can be used for automated testing of other LyX subsystems as well. Just write your own *-in.txt
scripts and add them into the autotests/ folder.
TODOs:
- perhaps simplify keytest.py
- check how this behaves under various types of failure of the test
(e.g., LyX crashing, hanging, ...) just to be sure it goes on with
the other tests anyway.
