No need to have a LilyPond.app! This path /Applications/LilyPond.app is just what you have if you download LilyPond 2.22 from the official website, but any installation of LilyPond (not necessarily a .app installed through a .dmg) has a directory for fonts. You could just as well install the font in the path where MacPorts installed LilyPond (not sure where that is exactly, I don't know MacPorts well). I haven’t found a way to force Homebrew to compile a 64-bit executable so far. Is there a ready-built .DMG image file for version 2.23.12 that I can download? See the official download page: https://lilypond.org/development.html It's not a .dmg, but in fact simpler. The learning manual has a tutorial on installing it (it's the same link as in the other thread to see screenshots of how to tell Apple that it's malware-free): https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.23/Documentation/learning/graphical-setup-under-macos

Configuration problems following new installation of Frescobaldi
I stopped using Frescobaldi and Lilypond at the beginning of the Covid pandemic and since then I have bought a new iMac with Monterey and transferred files across, Trying to get back up and running, I’ve installed Frescobaldi 3.1.3, which appears to be functioning perfectly, but I get these error reports: Starting lilypond 2.23.3 [dorothy.ly]... Fontconfig error: "/Users/michaelhendry/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf", line 2: XML or text declaration not at start of entity Fontconfig error: "/Users/michaelhendry/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf", line 2: XML or text declaration not at start of entity Fontconfig error: "/Users/michaelhendry/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf", line 2: XML or text declaration not at start of entity Processing `/Users/michaelhendry/git_stuff/lilyjazz/examples/dorothy.ly' Parsing...

Similar errors occur when I try to compile some of my existing Jazz leadsheets. There is no /Users/michaelhendry/.config directory on my computer, and I suspect there is a configuration option which will deal with this error. Can anyone advise? Thanks in advance, Michael Hendry
