you have to paste it to where lilypond can find it. That is not necessarily
the font directory of lilypond, but I think that is not a wrong place.
lilypond does not have frescobaldi in the search path.
As I read the original post, it's quite plausible that the poster pasted
the LilyPond code into Frescobaldi and expected immediate display of music.
But Frescobaldi, with (AFAIK) default settings, displays nothing until you
engrave the document (command in the menu labeled "LilyPond").
Daryl's exact words: "there were no error, but it didn't display anything!"
That's exactly what would happen if you put LP code into the editor but
don't engrave it. (But, if he were engraving an LP document that depends on
LilyJazz without installing LilyJazz, certainly he would get errors.)
So I think the disconnect may be more basic than any of the replies so far
have addressed.
Daryl: After pasting the code into Frescobaldi, you need to hit ctrl-m
(Windows or Linux) or cmd-m (Mac).
