Thanks. Do you have a plaintext version as well? We usually generate
HTML from a different format.

normally, we do
cd $HOME
mkdir usr
cd usr
mkdir src
tar xfz lilypond-x.y.z.tar.gz
cd lilypond-x.y.z
sh ./buildscripts/set-lily.sh #part of the standard distribution
make
(make install)
this will put the installation files into $HOME/usr/ (If you don't
supply arguments to configure, files will be put in /usr/local/, and
you probably don't have write access to that location.)
You might want to check out our installation instructions. they are
within the .tar.gz file as INSTALL.txt;

Unix users on ISPs and multiuser systems are likely to have
restrictions on disk space, which makes compiling and using LilyPond
from within the home directory difficult.
