Thanks Uwe, it's great that you try it out on windows and provide feedback. I
am not sure why it
fails at starting lilypond-book. Yes, this program tries to create a lot of
files, but it should be
happening in the temporary directory anyway. It isn't very different from
running latex itself. Thus
I think that the problem is not the generated files, but rather something else
that we miss. What do
you get if you do 'lilypond-book --version' from command line?
I get the same blocking from Windows. I'll haev a closer look the next days.
Oh wait, lilypond-book is a python script. For windows we probably need to
spawn the python
interpreter explicitly.
No, this works because Python is in LyX's PATH prefix.
Previewing also fails.
This is probably only a consequence that LyX fails at starting lilypond-book,
as above.
Yes.
I also see that we need to search for Lilypond while installing LyX.
I'll add this feature to the merged installer the next days and will
have a closer look why Lilypond-book fails.
Is this so that the path to lilypond.exe would be added automatically to LyX's
PATH? Probably a good
idea.
Yes, because without this, it would not work on Windows.
regards Uwe
