At the 4th Conference on Combinatorics on Words, Christophe Reutenauer posed the question of whether the dual reflected order yields a Gray code on the Lyndon family. In this paper we give a positive answer. More precisely, we present an O(1)-average-time algorithm for generating length n binary pre-necklaces, necklaces and Lyndon words in Gray code order.
