I've always thought it a real shame that the standard set of messages from
lilypond left you with a nagging sense of uncertainty whether it had

Typically, you would see this:
Why don't you alias lilypond to
(lilypond "$*" && echo Success) || echo Failed
simpler, and more conformant to the unix tradition ("no news is good news").
We already print out a quite extensive log of information during the
processing (which probably is not conformant to the UNIX tradition), so
why is it so bad to also tell the user that the PDF was successfully
produced.
