I finally decided to see if I could get point-and-click really working. After reading the instructions in Appendix D I discovered that I did not fully understand them:
Make sure that the environment variable XEDITOR is set to emacsclient --no-wait +%l %f I did not fully understand this at first. A friend who understands Linux better than I helped me out with this one. This needed to be in my ~/.bashrc file. But I was getting errors. If I have this 'emacsclient' line in my ~/.bashrc file I get: Xdvi Error Error executing: emacsclient --no-wait %l %f (I get real line numbers, of course) /path/to/file.ly If, however, I use this line instead: export XEDITOR="emacs +%l %f" ...it works. I can even use export XEDITOR="emacs +%l:%c %f" ...and get the cursor to land in the correct column (Emacs 21.2.1). But, each time I do point-and-click I get a new instance of Emacs. Is this correct? If so, it seems a bit awkward. Any clarifications welcome. -David _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
