Hi Jean and Valentin, Thanks to both of you for your help.
The find command in the terminal solves the problem perfectly, it iterates over a folder. So that's one great way to do this I think I see a way to do what Valentin suggested in musicxml2ly_conversion.py - it looks like it's just a matter of changing a few lines at the start of the main() function. I'll report back if I get that to work, in case anybody is interested Thanks, Sebastian On Fri, 25 Feb 2022 at 08:04, Jean Abou Samra <j...@abou-samra.fr> wrote: > Le 25/02/2022 à 00:27, Sebastian Adams a écrit : > > Does anybody out there have a Python script for converting a folder of > > musicxml (.xml) files into .ly or know how to do this? > > > > Welcome to the list. > > This question sounds like you want to learn about what your shell > can do.
