So do many viewers on other platforms. E.g., evince on Linix.

Thank you!  I will look into that.

I do actually use Frescobaldi for LP, now that I think of it.  It's really only 
a problem for LaTeX and Gregorio, for me, I guess.  Still, I will look into it.

 Neither my program, Foxit, or the built-in allows that.
 
 Sumatrapdf is an auto-updating pdf reader for windows. Maybe take a look at 
 that.
 
 Or use frescobaldi!

 When calling LilyPond from the command line (I'm on Mac OS X) like this

 is there a flag to tell the program to open the compiled PDF when it's 
 finished like the GUI program does?

I use a script ‘lilypond' in the PATH containing:
  exec /Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond $@“

Then run from the command line:
  lilypond name.ly  open name.pdf

In the past, Preview has not updated properly, but it can be useful anyhow, to 
get the document front.
