Re: Lilypond hangs when invoked

I tried that and it doesn't. Does anyone know if the executable I'm calling is actually the right one? I found it inside the LilyPond.app package, and assumed it was what I needed, but maybe I'm wrong.

I recommend that you first verify that you can run LilyPond normally
from the command line, i.e. that
lilypond.app/contents/MacOS/LilyPond lpfiles/treble.ly
(or some version of that, I don't use MacOS myself) works correctly. Ones
you have managed to do that, it's just to add the extra options you want.
By the way, I think you want
-b svg
and nothing else.
