It's really not our beef and native compilation under MacOSX appears feasible, certainly a lot more so than for Windows. We are not involved with most of the distributed versions of LilyPond under either GNU/Linux or FreeBSD, so it is not that the absence of an official GUB-compiled version for MacOSX would spell death for LilyPond on that platform. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
