Re: Running gdb on lilypond with -I args

Ah. Hoping this may be useful to others. I was using gdb incorrectly. One needs to say: $ gdb --args /usr/local/bin/lilpond -I... -I... -I... file.ly and then when in gdb simply, run: (gdb) run [I was foolishly saying run file.ly.] Andrew ___

Running gdb on lilypond with -I args

2019-03-22 Thread Andrew Bernard
Trying to run lilypond under gdb so that it picks up my include directories. Invoking this has no effect on the args gdb uses when calling run in gdb: gdb --args /usr/local/bin/lilypond -I $HOME/lib/lilypond -I $HOME/lib/openlilylib/snippets -I /home/andro/lib/openlilylib Where is my mistake?

Hi Saul, I am only referring to Ubuntu. This is not meant to be a general guide for all systems. Funny, when I wrote the notes on getting point and click working with gvim under Ubuntu 18.10 specifically, everybody immediately wanted to correct it for a dozen other platforms. Amusing in a way.

I followed the process described above to compile Guile 1.8 and Lilypond on Windows Subsystem for Linux. I found that it only worked when installing guile to /usr, not /usr/local. Saul On Fri, Mar 22, 2019, 6:24 PM David Wright wrote: > On Sat 23 Mar 2019 at 11:12:29 (+1100), Andrew Bernard

Hi Harm, This is great, thanks. Spent all morning trying to figure out why --disable-werror with configure would not work. Just the wrong flag. Now that I am aware of my stupidity I have been able to build from the code in the git repo with no problem at all. I have been through all this a while

Hi all, I’m by no means a seasoned Lilypond pro but I’ve been exploring how the program handles beams. In the essay, the 1950 Barenreiter Bach cello suite edition is held up as a benchmark of high quality engraving. Seeing this really helps the user understand why Lilypond’s default slurs are
