Hi,
I'm resurrecting a laptop whose hard drive died. I'm trying to set
up Emacs lilypond-mode.
AU 2.2.1 tells me to do a 'make install' in the elisp directory. I
don't see a makefile and 'make install' doesn't find an install
target rule. Am I missing something or are the docs behind?
Thanks,
Paul Scott
That only applies if lilypond-mode isn't installed on your platform
(first paragraph, last sentence).
I believe that lilypond isn't installed. This is a fresh install of
everything since the hard drive died.
This is a question you should be able to answer, is lilypond installed
or not.
That should have said lilypond-mode.
If it is, and you've installed from a binary, i.e., not built it
yourself, you should have everything you need. If you've installed
from source, then depending on what you've installed, you may or may
not need to build and install lilypond-mode.
Even so why would the makefile be gone if I had done the
lilypond-mode install.
Because makefiles are often not provided when the files they create are.
See below.
Usually you can just move the files to where they need to go and
ammend your ~/.emacs appropriately
I do see where the lilypond-mode file is so I can probably install it
manually but I still wonder about the documentation.
Thanks,
Paul
The documentation is written from the point of view of a bare bones
install. If you have the files the documentation refers to, then
you're a couple of steps ahead.
What do you believe was not bare bones about my install? I did a
standard GUB install from the website. It is the only version I have
installed.
Paul
