Here's a little more: All of my LP files are stored in ~/Documents/Lilypond. In that directory, there is a subdirectory for each piece I work on. My current piece, Four Brief Statements for Solo Guitar, is thus contained in the directory: ~/Documents/Lilypond/Statements, and contains st1.ly. This is only the second piece I've begun working on w/ LP. The first piece worked fine; all invocations of lilypond produced a .dvi and .pdf file. But while working on Statements, LP only spits out a latex file. What has changed? > > Do you have any of your output in a separate directory?
