This is my lily.sh script for OSX:
- deletes previous myname.pdf
- runs lilypond myname.ly
- deletes old mylily.mid and renames myname.midi to myname.mid
- deletes myname.ps
- opens MIDI and PDF
You don't have to remove older files, as they are overwritten. (In
OS X before 10.5, Preview and QuickTime are not dynamic, so that
they do not see the changes.)
I used the existence of a PDF as indicator if LilyPond was successful
- it says "file failed" very often even if the output is ok.
Of course I must close MIDI and PDF before re-compiling. I could
perhaps automate that with AppleScript (i.e. Python appscript), but I
only tried a quick hack for convenience, not a complete lilypond
shell... ;-)
Unfortunately MIDI is opened in QuickTime Player - I'd prefer to just
play it, like in Finder, but I couldn't find a way.
Also, you might put in an error if Lilypond fails
lilypond $1.ly || {error message; exit 1}
or something.
Thanks for the hint, I should look up how I can check the result in
an "if" statement...
