Subject: Saving output and .ly files automatically into different folders
Hi,
Is it possible within lilypond that - when editing/typesetting - the
output files (midi, pdf) are stored/Saved automatically into a
different folder(s) then the .ly files.
As editor i am using Frescobaldi.
i am searched throughout the lilypond documentation but
I could not find any info whether to accomplish this by either
1°) configuring lilypond or Frescobaldi or
2°) by defining the folder structure within the .ly script itself
(for example in the \score or \layout)
i have probably looked into the wrong places.
I appreciate any help on this.
many thanks
Dirk Van Damme
I don't know how command line options are set in Frescobaldi, but generally
this can be done using a command line option in LilyPond. See:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/usage/command_002dline-usage
In this case:
"-o, --output=FILE or FOLDER
Set the default output file to FILE or, if a folder with that name exists,
direct the output to FOLDER, taking the file name from the input file. The
appropriate suffix will be added (e.g. .pdf for pdf) in both cases."
