This was a very simple script. I learned a good bit of scripting with
the help of Patrick Horgan a while back when I was writing my lily2image
script. Here's the script for any interested folks (first I did
"convert-ly -e *.ly" on the whole directory):
#!/bin/bash
#*****************************************#
# Run Lilypond on a lot of files and save #
# the terminal output in text files #
#*****************************************#
for LILYFILE in *.ly
do
STEM=$(basename "$LILYFILE" .ly)
echo "running $LILYFILE..."
lilypond --format=png "$LILYFILE" >& "$STEM".txt
rm "$STEM".ps

Cool! I still think that you ought to put it all (including the grep part)
into a single script and store it in the source tree. And it ought to be
added to the CG so that we have it tracked for the next time we release a
stable version (I assume it will happen quickly, once Graham gets home from
Singapore -- although maybe going to Scotland doesn't qualify as "home").
I'd be very pleased if it were added to the CG and source tree but I
don't have the push privileges to put it there, so I'll attach it to
this email with the name "check-snippets". I didn't put the "convert-ly
-e" command into the script because for reasons unknown to me I feel
like it belongs as a separate process. I did stick the grep command in
at the end and tested it again--works just fine. :) I wasn't certain
whether it would wait until all the files had been run before grepping
but it did. It finished looping and then moved on to the grep command.
I looked through the convert-ly.py script and I feel now as though I
need to learn some Python. I especially like the way it deals with
command-line options--much more intuitive than what I've been doing with
bash scripting. Maybe I'll experiment a bit with the convert-ly rules
on my own copy of the script and see what I can learn. :)
