Hello Sarah,
My setup it to use TeXShop, which is part of TeXLive, to edit the .ly files.
A trick : in order not to lose the current selection or cursor positition when
you re-activate an editor window, click in the gray background of its title
bar, not in in the text pane below.
I compile the files in the Terminal with:
lily myFile.ly
The command can be called again with the up arrow of the keyboard.
"lily" is defined as an alias in "${HOME}/.bashrc":
alias lily="/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond
--pdf"
Another way round is to define a function in "${HOME}/.bashrc" to avoid typing
the ".ly" extension of the file:
function lil ()
{
/Applications/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond --pdf ${1}.ly
}
and then "lil myFile" does the compilation.
Sorry if I over-explained things you already know.
Regards,
