I tried that, but the directory is called LilyPond 2.app, not LilyPond.app.
In any case, when I make that small substitution, it still says no such file or directory. The MacBook seems to want to force it to look in my user director, not on the rest of the hard drive. The full path is this: I am just about ready to give up. I think it may be a Mac thing. But this is too much effort to waste on something that should be so simple. Under JEdit/PlugIns/PlugIn Options, I put the whole specific path: /Volumes/Macintosh HD/Applications/LilyPond 2.app/Contents/Resources/bin/ You'd think that would be specific enough. But JEdit seems to want to make JEdit look for LilyPond in my user directory, where it's NOT. When I try to drill down to where it actually lives by using the "..." icon at the end of the path space, when I get to the LilyPond 2.app directory, it's grayed-out and I can't choose it. I have no idea what this means, but I'm just about ready to give up. If you have any more ideas, I'd appreciate hearing them. It really seems dumb that I can't even get the program to start from within LilyPondTool.
