I'm in the process of setting up the Music recipe [1], but I completely fail to understand which, where and how the minimum required additional files are to be loaded into the system. In the recipe configuration a list if additional files are given as a simple list of links, but they actually proved to be a convoluted, sticky spiderweb.
My site runs on a cheap shared linux server [2], and I do not have access to the command line (I use FilleZilla for uploading files). I'll list them, so that if anybody has suggestions, please... - abcm2ps Martin Fick suggested I can use this file http://abcplus.sourceforge.net/abcm2ps-4.12.30 and said I could make a /bin/ directory under the /Cookbook/ directory. He also wrote that copying it to the server and making sure that it has the execute bit set (755) will probably do the trick. - gs This two-letter word links to a site from which a tar.gz file can be downloaded. Once expanded, the "beast" turns out to be a huge folder of more than 50 MB called /ghostscript-8.60/ which contains tons of utterly disparate files and folders of any kind. No way to understand how to use such a tool. - pnmcrop and ppmtogif It is not clear to me whether it must me added to the "gs" thing, or is a mere alternative. In any case, this link also brings to an expanded folder of over 8 MB called /netpbm-10.26.45/ and this one also is crowded with any sort of files and folders. - abcMIDI By following this link I ended up with an abcMIDI-2007_03_18-1.i386.rpm file but I do not know how to handle it. I know that my server runs on RedHat Linux, and as far as I've read on the internet such a Linux system adopts .rpm files. But I know nothing more, and I'm stuck anyway. Coult that file also be placed in the /Cookbook/bin/ directory? Should it be "processed" in some way? Or, maybe, is it simply the wrong kind of file that I choosed...? Thanks for any help.
