Greetings, Actually you have to save this code as a new file on your desktop (or anywhere you want), and make *sure* its extension is .ly (not .txt). If the extension is correct, you should see that the file has a black "note" icon; if it does, just double click on it and wait a few seconds; you should see a pdf document appear next to it: this is your score. As soon as you've understood the process, I advise you to learn the LilyPond language, starting with our tutorial at http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.11/Documentation/user/lilypond-learning/Tutorial Cheers, Valentin _______________________________________________ bug-lilypond mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-lilypond
