My tests on Windows 10 indicate that lilypond.exe can't handle UNC notation. This is true even of a local file.
First I "type" the file and it works fine with UNC. Then I try to launch LilyPond with the same file name and it can't find the file. Bug or future feature? *** Start command line C:\Users\Knute\Desktop >type \\KNUTE-HP\Users\Knute\Desktop\test.ly \version "2.19.81" { c'4 d' e' f' } C:\Users\Knute\Desktop >lilypond \\KNUTE-HP\Users\Knute\Desktop\test.ly GNU LilyPond 2.19.81 warning: cannot find file: `\\KNUTE-HP\Users\Knute\Desktop\test.ly' fatal error: failed files: "\\\\KNUTE-HP\\Users\\Knute\\Desktop\\test.ly" *** End command line --- Knute Snortum (via Gmail) _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list bug-lilypond@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
