In the file /init.el/ paste in the following lines:
(setq load-path (append (list (expand-file-name "~/emacs/site-lisp"))
load-path))
(autoload 'LilyPond-mode "lilypond-mode" "LilyPond Editing Mode" t)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.ly$" . LilyPond-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.ily$" . LilyPond-mode))
(add-hook 'LilyPond-mode-hook (lambda () (turn-on-font-lock)))
And in the first line where it says /expand-file-name
"~/emacs/site-lisp"/ paste in the full path to your /emacs/site-lisp
folder in your LilyPond installation. It will be
/home//user//lilypond/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp if you installed
LilyPond in your home folder. Don't forget to change /user/ in the path.
Save the file and try opening a .ly file with emacs. If it works, the
code will turn pretty colors and there will be a 'lilypond' menu at the
top amongst the others.

Okay, in home/rpalmer/, I've got a .emacs.d. The only thing that
contains is auto-save-list (a directory), which is empty. I'll create
the init.el file in ~/.emacs.d.

Dave,
Does it make any/much/a significant difference that I'm running
8.10? I would think anything that worked under 8.04 should work
under 8.10.

It shouldn't be this hard to set up lilypond-mode for emacs
under Ubuntu 8.04.
Ralph, check in your home folder and see if there is a folder
called .emacs.d and if there is a file in that folder named
init.el
It should be there. If not, create that file and folder. We're
going to get this working.

I tried M-x lilypond-mode, and got an emacs error
message that lilypond-mode
couldn't be found.
Anyone have a suggestion?
Mmmh... jEdit?
OK, I'm out :)
