Ok, I’ve narrowed the issue down. Frescobaldi is having problems with file
paths that have question marks and accented characters.
Given a file named “song.ly” with just this content:
%%%%
\version "2.19"
\fixed c' { c d e f }
%%%%
Frescobaldi shows the PDF after engraving if this file is in either of the
following directories:
Helló/
Hello?/
But Frescobaldi does not show the PDF if song.ly is in a directory named Helló?/
And yes, I use the fully punctuated song titles as the enclosing directory
name. macOS handles it, no problem. I even use bash scripts to process these
files without a hiccup. The following are all examples of directory names I
use:
¡Gloria! ¡Gloria!/
Bendiciones, ¡Cuántas Tienes Ya!/
Señor, ¿Quién Entrará?/
This problem is not present in Frescobaldi 2.20.
