Here is my CLI LilyPond script:
### Start script
#!/bin/bash
LY_HOME="${LY_HOME:-/path/to/your/lilypond-2.22.2/bin}"
$LY_HOME/lilypond $@
### End script
I put this script in my local bin directory. It uses the LY_HOME
variable (not official or anything). If you set it before you run the
script, it will use your set LY_HOME. Otherwise, it will default to
/path/to/your/lilypond-2.22.2/bin.
