Hi folks
I'm puzzled by this error. What I'm doing wrong?
[tmp]$ mkdir pdf
[tmp]$ cat test.ly
\version "2.18.2"
{ c1 }
[tmp]$ ls pdf
[tmp]$
[tmp]$ lilypond --output=pdf test.ly
GNU LilyPond 2.19.81

Why it's changing working directory to pdf before running test.ly?
The documentation in Usage 1,2 is pretty clear:
-o, --output=FILE or FOLDER
Set the default output file to FILE or, if a folder with that name
exists, direct the output to FOLDER, taking the file name from the
input file. The appropriate suffix will be added (e.g. .pdf for pdf) in
both cases.
