Yes.

I was wrong, you probably have to logout/login again to make bash read the profile files. Hopefully this helps

What does the following command return:
printenv TEXMF

Nothing.

Which indicates that the lilypond-profile file wasn't read.

If you are eager to get started (waiting for some Slackware
user on the list to provide more help), just run
. /.../lilypond-profile
in the shell where you want to run LilyPond.

I did this after making lilypond-profile executable. But after this, if I do printenv TEXMF I get nothing. So, I feel there is something wrong in lilypond-profile. I think, if this is set right, Lilypond- 2.3.11 may work properly on Slackware 10.


In another mail, you wrote
Hello,

While invoking Lilypond, what sould be the following environment
variables:

TEXMF
LILYPONDPREFIX
LANG

How to set these variables? Can anybody give some examples?

If you did 'make install', you should leave LILYPONDPREFIX unset. The same goes for LANG, unless you want your programs to speak some other language than english. If you try to set the TEXMF variable yourself, it's very likely to get wrong, that's why we have the lilypond-profile file.

Hello,

Thanks for your mail. Now Lilypond-2.3.11 is running on Slackware 10! I installed mftraced ec fonts. I have done texhash. But when I do

lilypond test.py

I get the following message:

Now processing `test.ly'
Parsing...
Interpreting music... error: can't find `feta20.afm'
Music font has not been installed properly.  Aborting

I have not understood what I should do with the scripts

lilypond-profile
lilypond-login

I am using bash. Could you please help.



I don't know how things are setup in Slackware. On RedHat systems,
there's a directory /etc/profile.d/, where you can put the file
lilypond-profile (renamed to lilypond-profile.sh) so it will be
automatically read as soon as you start a new shell.
Otherwise, you can add a line
. /whatever/path/to/the/file/lilypond-profile
in your own ~/.profile

Hello,

As mentioned above, I copied lilypond-profile.sh into /etc/ profile. d. In Slackware 10 also we have /etc/profile.d. Now I tried

lilypond test.ly

where the content of test.ly is

{ c'4 e' g' }

But I still get the message:

Now processing `test.ly'
Parsing...
Interpreting music... error: can't find `feta20.afm'
Music font has not been installed properly.  Aborting

I have installed mftraced ec fonts and done texhash. What is the problem?

Anand
