Hi all,

So I've just started using LilyPondTool and jEdit and I really love the
environment and layout, but in some ways it's driving me absolutely
bananas. After consulting with Bertalan (also on this list) and receiving
various explanations/tips, this describes my current situation:

To avoid errors associated with the server:

- After booting up my machine, I kill the javaw (server) process using the
task manager then restart the machine
- I check that the javaw process is not running, then start jEdit using the
command prompt and "jedit -noserver"
- the program launches successfully, but it invariably starts the javaw
server process anyway (at least this way the error messages are gone).

Other stuff:

- If I create a new file using the score wizard, the Lilypond buttons
appear in the toolbar. When I reopen a file I previously worked on, they
are gone;
- So are all other settings I would like to use by default, such as
starting the PDF preview and Sidekick (I also have to tell Sidekick *every
time* to parse on keystroke and use the lilypond parser, I find this
incredibly annoying)
- The PDF previewer periodically crashes anyway, and I have to go through
all these steps again from the start to get it working again.

I do love the convenience that LilyPondTool offers, but all of this is
becoming incredibly frustrating. I'm just wondering whether there are
people who ave had similar problems who could offer some help, or whether
I'm missing something because I'm new to jEdit and LPT. I would greatly
appreciate any advice/assistance people could give.

Warm regards,

Brent.
