Re: Patch: Delete intermediate ps files

2009-07-08 Thread Graham Percival
Yes, that patch is the only thing needed to fix it. However, does this patch apply cleanly, without disrupting any regtests? It's possible that some (badly written) regtests require the intermediate files to be built. If so, we'd need to add a build rule to add the -d option to enable intermedia

Hi Folks, I've spoken at L.C.A a couple of times on topics that include LilyPond, but I think it's time for some of the more core people to give it a go. I think that the Lilypond community is unique in the way it operates, particularly in the importance it places on documentation, and in
