Sigh. Long live MacOS X. MacOS directory handling is severely broken for large directories (It came to a screeching halt I tried store my inbox with 6000-mails in a single maildir on a mac mini). The new build uses a shared directory for all languages, so you don't build each file separately for each language. That directory has some 8500 files. I guess I have to use some deeper subdirectory levels to make it usable on MacOS. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
