Murray, 
Don't know about this, but when I checked 0.1.77 lilypond.info it did
have \input texinfo at every place a included file might be.  Version
0.1.80 showed the same thing.  (Something is broken)

|       file should have some information.  I will be glad to try to
|       examine it if given specific instructions.  All I know about
|       gdb is how to call it.
|
|       Here are the error messages that come with the "crash":

A 30 second gdb lesson
o execution
  % gdb executable [core]
o if you load the optional core gdb will start up with a stack dump
  telling you where the programmed cored
o help
  help (follow displayed instructions)
o break points
  b function-name
  b line-number
  b filename:line-number (Not 100% sure on this one)
o movement
  r args (run program with args)
  n (execute next line)
  s (step into next line)
o print
  p variable-name

Not much, but better than a blank as my sister-in-law always says.
   
|       To tell the truth, I couldn't get mi2mu to work on any of the
|       MIDI files I have laying around on my filesystem.  Here is the
|       error message from one of the less fatal MIDI files:  
|
|eppes:/usr1/src/lilypond-0.1.75/TESTING# mi2mu example.mid
|mi2mu FIXME /FlowerLib 1.1.44. of Jul 19 1998 17:34:25
|Parsing...
|[1][683]error: ugh

I get similar result with pl 77 and pl 80 with a midi file lilypond
created... Curious. Murray I have not experienced a core as of yet.

|The file GREENGRO.mid was taken from some site that offers public domain
|MIDI files.  The file example.mid comes with the midi2tex program.
|
|There is a chance I haven't mastered the program yet.
|
|To pick a nit:
|
|       The "-d" option seems to be removed from mi2mu but not from
|       the documentation.  The error report is strange.  I think
|       some variables have not been expanded.  Here is what using the
|       option yields:
|
|eppes:/usr1/src/lilypond-0.1.77/TESTING# mi2mu -d example.mid
|mi2mu: unrecognized option: `ption: `%s''
|
|       On the other hand "--debug" does work.

Same experience here except my -d error message is better than yours:
mi2mu: unrecognized option: `Got 2
n  âÇ'

Looks like we got some work to do.

Jeff
