Thanks! I'm having trouble understanding something. In Item 4 of "GNU Lilypond – Application Usage", under the heading "Integrating Text and Music", it explicitly says this "lilypond-book provides a way to automate this process: This program extracts snippets of music from your document, runs lilypond on them, and outputs the document with pictures substituted for the music." According to this, LilypondBook is a "program". I'm new to command-line usage, so that might be why this confuses me. Is it not a stadalone program?
I wish the Lilypond site had complete examples to study from, rather than just specific examples meant to be understood only by experienced command-line users who would know where to apply them. I have TeXMaker, TeXWorks, TeXLive, eMacs, GNUTeXmacs, have tried to get a pdf file with text and music from all of them without success. I've no idea, for instance, how to make TeXMaker understand a Lilypond command; or what program to use TexXInfo on, or even whether TeXInfo is itself a program. Could you tell me whether there are complete examples somewhere which I could study from? Thanks again! Reinhold Kainhofer wrote: > > Am Dienstag, 30. August 2011, 16:01:01 schrieb Dmytro O.
