Hi, I’m also a Mac User and for LilyPond I use TeXShop with LilyPond engines. For me it works perfectly.
Up till now I’ve only used Frescobaldi as a means to “LilyPondize” my old Finale scores by exporting them as .xml and importing these in Frescobaldi, process them, copy the resulting score and paste it into TeXShop. It needs a few tricks to get correct barnumbers. I can send you an example of one of my —_ly.tex scores if you like. Best regards, Robert Blackstone PS.I don’t understand your question: "What's your DX?” I have no idea what a DX is? > On 7 Apr 2020, at 18:49, cgilmore <xratama...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Greetings, all! > > I was curious what everyone's setup is like for writing Lilypond, > specifically, for any non-Frescobaldi users.
