Comment #3 on issue 4187 by [email protected]: Usage: convert-ly command
line tips
https://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=4187
Hmm..
Actually the Windows equivalent command for comment #2 would be this:
forfiles /s /M *.ly /c "cmd /c lilypond @file"
or if you want to state the explicit dir to search if it isn't in your
existing directory add the /p switch.
forfiles /s /p C:\my\lilypond\files\here /M *.ly /c "cmd /c lilypond @file"
There is probably some consideration for spaces (escape them or use quotes)
but again documenting all the permutations is tedious - I've tested this on
Windows 8).
I haven't been able to workout a simple command to output the files in the
dir you run the 'forfiles' commands from. It's not as powerful as xargs or
exec.
But I can add that to help our window's users...
Regarding merging the two chapters, now that I have looked, we are simply
following the same convention for running convert-ly as running lilypond -
the chapter/section layouts are the same. So I think it would be best to
keep it consistent for now anyway.
