Hi all,
I've been trying out Lilypond on OSX Tiger, and I'm trying to get
the command
line working, particularly the midi2ly. Reading the list archive,
people are
saying to "read the Readme file" that came with it, but I've so far
been unable
to find a Readme file. It seems that the zip just contains a single
Application.
The midi2ly file is in there, if you explicitly go in to explore
the package,
but I can't work out how to use it - calling it with python
requires the "midi"
module.
Can anyone give slightly more explit instructions on what to do
from here?
Try the following:
See if you have a file called ".profile" in your home folder (i.e. in
the folder with your name on it). Note that the file name starts with
a dot. If there isn't a file with that name, create it.
In your .profile somewhere, add this line:
export PATH=$PATH:/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin
Make sure there's a blank line (i.e. a return) at the very end of the
file
Hope that works.
David
