Hi Apologies if this has been raised before (though I did look!) but there seems to be a problem with the LilyPond text editor on Mac whereby apostrophes are replaced by a “curly” version which isn’t recognised by the compiler, triggering a “not a note name error”. Tried re-installing, but as you can see, even the built-in demo fails:
> \version "2.20.0" > > > % CORRECT typography: > > \relative { > c' d e f g a b c > } > > % When entered manually - NB changed apostrophe which triggers “not a note > name” error > > \relative { > c’ d e f g a b c > } Output from each: And the relevant output from the parser: > Processing `/Users/joeofarrell/Desktop/LilyPond > stuff/LilyPond_reinstalled_test1.ly' > Parsing... > /Users/joeofarrell/Desktop/LilyPond stuff/LilyPond_reinstalled_test1.ly:14:3: > error: not a note name: c’ > > c’ d e f g a b c > > fatal error: failed files: "/Users/joeofarrell/Desktop/LilyPond > stuff/LilyPond_reinstalled_test1.ly” Any suggestions? There was an OS update (11.2.2) a few days ago - could that have caused an issue?
