Re: Syntax highlighting in LilyPad?

[Bertalan Fodor]

Actually java need not be installed. You can zip together the whole editor
distribution, and use it without any installing, but just unzipping.
So really it would involve creating a folder structure:
lilypondtool
 -- jedit (containing all necessary plugins in the jars directory)
 -- jre
pdf reader

you can also put some predefined properties into, to make everything work
out of the box.

the jre is also redistributable in this form according to the license.

Actually it would be rather easy to create an installer (with nsis for
example) that installs lilypond, jedit, java and external pdf reader, and
sets the properties file of LilyPondTool to find everything out of the
box. It's a pity I don't have time for it :-(
