Hi Brett,
A more GUI-based solution is to output to PDF as normal, then just
"Save as..." from Preview.app as a PNG.

Brett,
I am also using Lilypond on Mac OS X. The Python script is how you
run Lilypond in the terminal as well. Open a terminal and type
lilypond -h
If you get the Lilypond help output, then you're all set to use
Lilypond in the terminal with commands from Chapter 5. (If not,
see the README instructions for correctly configuring it) For
example, to generate a PNG at a resolution of 200, you enter
lilypond --png --dresolution=200 filename.ly
This should produce a PNG instead of a PDF. There is also an
option for PS.

I'm using the Mac OS X binary of Lilypond (2.6.1) and loving it.
But how
do I get the output as something other than PDF? Specifically, I want
PNG, but PS would also be useful. Obviously I can't use the GUI to
achieve this, so I'm assuming (hoping) that there is a way to invoke
Lilypond via the command line in Terminal that will let me specify
the
output format I want. Can anyone clear this up for me?
