Well, I do have Xcode, but I’ll look into that more later.

I’m starting to see what kind of .ly file the various lilypond-book options 
want to see (fragment doesn’t like \layout {…}, e.g.).  However, I have an 
especially large score I’d like to see rotated 90 degrees (so the bottom is to 
the right).  How might I make that happen?

If you’d rather I bring this discussion back into the user-list, I’m happy to 
do so.

Thank you, again, Brother!

Peace of Christ,
Conor
