Greetings,

I have a few .ly files that work great and produce lovely pictures when I build 
then with a command like:

lilypond --png my_song.ly​

I started to play around with midi output and was a little suprised to find 
that I needed to add a \midi code block to my file (instead of some other 
command-line flag when building) but this was not a big deal - After 20 or 30 
minutes I figured out how to do it and got some lovely sound output.

I was surprised, though to discover that when I built my songs they were no 
longer producing png output.

Is there a way to get both PNG and midi output from the same .ly file, or do I 
need to invent some preprocessor step that adds a \midi​ block to a file or 
perhaps removes one from a file to get png output?

Thank you,
Pete Baughman
