Lilypond manual

[Suzanne Blatt]

Hello,

i've been trying in vain to get Lilypond 2.6 up and running on my SUSE 9.3, so I switched to the Windows side of my computer and installed Lilypond 2.7.  As a test, I went to the manual and typed verbatim an example and it didn't work.  I found a similar thing on the Linux side of my machine with Lilypond 2.4 and assumed that it was a version problem.

Can anyone shed some light as to why the manual examples are not working?

Thanks,

Suzie
