Right, i usually set up a remote xpdf-server (or 'gv --watch') process
to pipe the generated pdfs to, so i didn't catch this.

Btw, running fomus from a shell and setting lily-view-exe-path to "xpdf"
doesn't work here for some reason, no xpdf gets set up to display
things.  I suspect its me doing something bad, other viewers like
"evince" or "gv --watch" work just fine...

Not sure whats right here.  It depends a bit on how the viewing process
is set up from fomus presumably.

Theres definitely a way, either by setting the parameters right for the
compilation-process inside emacs (maybe using a comint-derived mode?),
or perhaps use a separate viewing process in emacs?  I can do some
looking into this perhaps over the weekend if nobody else comes up with
a solution.
