Dear Kevin

The example takes for granted that you downloaded the entire repository
using git and that you add that directory to the include path in your
editor. That's the recommended way, because you can compile any example
file easily and you can update the openlilylib snippets with one single
command ('git pull').

You can download all the repository with the following command:

git clone [email protected]:openlilylib/openlilylib.git

If you use Frescobaldi you should add the openlilylib directory in the
preferences.
