Re: lilypond bombs on Mandrake 10 again

[Rutger Hofman]

I asked you not to adorn the file name with fancy URL style stuff.
You do it anyway, and it bombs.

You should type:

lilypond lily.ly

You should *not* type

lilypond file:lily.ly

because it will bomb on you.

If you *want* to include the whole path name of your lilypond file,
do it like this:

lilypond /home/sarah/lily.ly

I don't know what you intend with the -I=/usr/lib flag. I think it has
no meaning at all. Library paths are not specified with a -I flag,
and -I= is a syntax error anyway. Unixes have a separate mechanism
for library inclusion, which is uninteresting now because I think
that is not your problem. Your problem is that you specify the input
file in a wrong way.
