IMO, it's better to do this:
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/Apps/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin
That way the existing path is still used, even if it's set somewhere
else (say, /etc/profile).
I agree. I revised that several times and must have ended up with the
wrong stuff in the line.

All of these can be condensed to
$ cat "export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/Apps/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin"
>> ~/.profile
(or something like that; please test it before suggesting a doc change)
The reason I'd rather not do that is if someone makes a typo when
entering that line, they're going to have to know how to use a
raw-text editor to fix it anyhow, or end up with a bunch of extra
export PATH lines and extra stuff in their PATH.
