Comment #26 on issue 1948 by [email protected]: Windows install
clobbered system PATH
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1948
I'll make a GUB patch and post it here.
James added this to the discussion:
"If you look here:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/usage/lilypond_002dbook
It links to Command Line Usage which says if you use mac then you
need to go here
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/web/macos-x
and so we can make a similar entry in Usage and point them to
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/web/windows
! which is what we've had all along - we just never linked to it from
Usage like we do Mac OS X.
Voila!
I can do that.
Just let me know if that is the route we are going down now."
I also believe
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.14/Documentation/learning/command_002dline needs
checking and updating.
I'd suggest telling users how to modify their PATH by using Control Panel;
System; Advanced (XP - or "Advanced System Settings" for Vista - probably
the same for W7, if someone can check); Environment Variables; System
Variables; Edit PATH. Then add ;C:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\bin and OK.
I'd really appreciate it if you could pick this aspect up, James.
