sorry if this has come up before, but i'm finding an unexplainable
behavior with newer version of lilypond on macos 10.4.
i have several .ly files that i began around 2.7.7 or so, that are
relatively long.
when i open them in any version up to 2.7.15 they compile fine and
produce pdf output.
..
shortening the original file to only a few lines (4 or 5) and saving
it also brings no change.
Does _any_ .ly file work? Try e.g. a file containing only:
{ c4 }
yes. all files that i enter NEW work. in other words, if i were to
REENTER the old files into new ones, the exact same code seems to
work just fine. but i'd really rather avoid doing that. i've got
hundreds of measures in ensemble pieces with several instruments.
i've thought it might be "gremlins" in the text (at least that's what
"barebones" software calls them... i use textwrangler a lot to create
my files), but i can't seem to find any. i know with other programs
that are originally linux-based (such as the old helmut dersch
panorama software and the newest port of the physical modeling
software "tao"), that the old scripts only work when i create them
using the old "simpletext" program in the classic environment. but my
lilypond files won't open with simple text.
still at a bit of a loss.
thanks,
sean
