for those who asked about mapping in vim for example:
this mapping in my vimrc:
map lil :w:!lilypond -o % %
runs the current file through lilypond when I type 'lil'
likewise:
map pdf :! open %.pdf
map mid :!quit 'Quicktime Player 7':! open -a 'Quicktime Player 7'
%.midi
open the pdf and m
in recent comments folks have discouraged vim - I have learned vim
(MacVim) specifically for Lilypond use and have found it terrific.
I have mapped commands to send to lilypond and view pdf or open midi
output in Quicktime player.
The syntax coloring is a pain to install but works. vims cap
Hi Stefan.
"~" means your home directory. In a Linux shell, typing "cd ~" will take you to
your home directory (which is something like /home/yourusername or something; I
used Ubuntu). You can look there for the .vim folder.
In Windows XP the home directory is usually C:\Documents and
Settings
