I've never used LilyPond on a Mac myself, but as far as I can understand, there is an option "Update syntax" in the compile menu for LilyPond, see the section "Updating with convert-ly" in the manual. If you want to run convert-ly or any other of the utility programs from the command line, please first read the section "Notes for the MacOS X app". /Mats ___ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user

Well..., no, I forgot about convert-ly. However, I cannot find it on the menu and when I invoke it the terminal, I receive tcsh: convert-ly: Command not found. This confuses me because I thought that convert-ly is installed along with lilypond. Am I missing something?
