I want to thank everybody who has helped thus far in the saga of my getting the LilyPond/JEdit/LilyPondTool combo up and running.
Thanks to several people's suggestions, I think I got the permissions problem fixed. I have no idea how I could have had permissions trouble in the first place, since I have always installed things exclusively as a user, but whatever. I have now gotten as far as getting the combination set-up to display the little scale that is included as a test file for beginners in LilyPond. It's titled simply "A scale in LilyPond" and it displays fine in the PDF displayer that I have docked to the right of the JEdit workspace. HOWEVER, the latest problem is that I can't seem to get the PDF displayer to STOP showing me this scale, even when I attempt to put in new files to be compiled. For example, a buddy suggested that I use the LilyPondTool Score Wizard to make another four-note scale. FYI, I append the output it created below. But I can't get it to display -- even though I have the new file in JEdit, I still see the original scale to the right. Here's what I put in with the Wizard: % Created on Fri Sep 10 11:36:20 EDT 2010 \version "2.12.3" \header { title = "Seth's Test Score" subtitle = "(suggested by Bob)" composer = "Seth Williamson" } staffTrumpetInC = \new Staff { \time 4/4 \set Staff.instrumentName = "Trumpet in C" \set Staff.midiInstrument = "trumpet" \transposition bes, \key c \major \clef treble \relative c' { a b c d \bar "|." } } \score { << \staffTrumpetInC >> \midi { } \layout { } } \paper { } Here is what I think are the error codes the above code generated. Anybody have any ideas what went wrong? This is a console shell for running LilyPond and related commands.
