Don't talk nonsense! It works perfectly well to run commands like convert-ly -e myfile.ly from the command prompt. Wow, sorry. I never thought that. It seems that I must update my knowledge. Bert ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.o

I was thinking a bit more. Installing and uninstalling LilyPond itself should remain separate from jEdit. So there should be one installer that separately installs the two. Bert ___ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu

Of course it should, but probably not the current \bin\ folder but a folder that only contains wrapper scripts to lilypond, lilypond-book, midi2ly, ... which call the real programs from a directory that's not in the PATH. This is the way it's done in the Linux installers. /Mats Bertalan Fo

Hi, It's been a while since I've had much to do with LilyPond, but it seems that the installer is STILL fiddling with the registry in terms of python. What I would like to see: 1. Could the "call registry_python" line in the lilypond.nsh (or whatever) file used for generating the installer be
