We are doing the same for non-preview conversions in converter.C (where I added the comment), so I think it is safe. Note that without the patch the directory where the converter is run is the one where you started LyX from, so a converter can currently not make any assumptions about the directory at all. > Could we resuse the > originaldir flag for that? (or am I mixing things together?) The originaldir flag would be wrong in the case of lilypond: We do not need to change to the directory of the source file, but to the directory where the output should be created. Georg
