Has Lilypond been fixed to work properly on OSX Leopard yet? I see
all kinds of archived messages about problems with it and I have just
downloaded the latest 2.11.x version and indeed it does not seem to
work on first try. here is what happens now:
1 - Download lilypond for Intel OSX
2 - Decompress it, there is only one file extracted, called Lilypond.
Its actually a package with much stuff found inside its contents, but
I'm not at all sure how, for example, to execute musicxml2ly since its
deep inside the package.
3 - If I double click on the Lilypond package, something launches and
a text window comes up with the test ly code. There is no way to save
this file. The menu has "Lilypond" displayed but there is no way to
save, quit or do anything else. I have to use ForceQuit to kill the
application.
4 - I am able to copy and paste this code into another text editor and
save test.ly that way. However when I then try to drag and drop this
test.ly into the Lilypond icon, the same thing happens as when I just
double clicked on the icon.....it opens up a text editor with the
sample ly code in it and wedges the menu so that there is no way to
quit or do anything. Nothing is rendered.
