I have no idea, as I am pretty unfamiliar with using the command-line. I tried to follow those instructions recently (to try the png output) but was not able to get it to run. There did seem to be more steps than I would have thought. I'm hoping to get together with a friend of mine who is experienced with unix on the mac to help me get it working. -Paul _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
