Why is this 11, not 9?

You didn't post this line in the OP. It's helpful to see the whole log
pasted, rather than snippets.

So can we assume that you're running this code from Frescobaldi?

In which case, can you test whether the cade runs correctly in
LilyPond; that's native LilyPond, executed directly from Windows.

Otherwise, you haven't eliminated the possibility that new
Frescobaldis have "forgotten" how to call ancient versions
of LilyPond successfully.

I also wonder whether the old "unsaved file" has anything to
do with the problem (which would make the problem go away with
direct LilyPond, as you can't run LP on an unsaved file).

Cheers,
David.

Hi Jean,
The following code is in v2.23.11 and it run OK.
\version "2.23.11"
\markup "test"

I am just querious about the error in v2.18.2.





I've now checked with a 2.18 install, and the only way I am able
to reproduce this error is by editing one of LilyPond's internal
.scm files and adding \version in it. Did you edit the internal files?

[Andrew Bernard]

I am curious as to why you are still using 2.18.2. Is it really 
necessary for you? Why? Stable release is now 22.22.2. That's a _long_ 
way further on. I'm not sure people want to spend time helping debug 
2.18.2 issues. Just asking.

Does the error reproduce in 2.23.10, and if so, can you paste the exact 
error message (with the line numbers)?


What is the name of the file? This sounds like LilyPond is mistaking it 
for one of its internal files.
