In fact cli doesn't work for me on Mac OS - in a terminal I just get the
switch list displayed for lilypond when I run ANY command in Terminal, but I
also got this in 2.12.x too. No errors.
This indicates a rather severe problem with our beginner docs -- if a
serious and helpful contributor like you can't get it working,
something's badly wrong.
Well that may be, or I never really bothered to check cli until now and
I didn't want to cloud the issue here, I was going to make sure that I
hadn't missed something obvious before I opened another call on one of
the other lists but it wasn't until I re-read what was being asked that
I realised that my tests on Mac OS X were invalid after all.
However the output is the same on the PDFs :)
But that said, this is just because I never bother with the CLI.
Could you getting it to work? Take a look at the website, Download ->
MacOS X. Bottom left-hand box (well, more like "middle of the page,
left column"). If you follow those instructions exactly, then what
error message(s) do you get when you try to run lilypond?
I get no messages at all.
For example i type
'lilypond file1.ly file2.ly file3.ly'
In fact
'lilypond file.ly'
hit enter, wait a second, up pops the switch information as if you had
just typed
'lilypond' with no arguments.
I also tried 'lilypond' with the explicit pdf switch and got nothing.
I didn't check the console (where there maybe more messages), but I will
do that when I get home and I'll also look specifically at the cli
documentation.
So unless it some 'you-must-use-full-paths' problem (I drag the app to
the Applications Dir and then cd into my dir with my .ly files and type
the commands above) I cannot think what else it could be. I was late for
work so I didn't do much more on it.
lilypad works so well I never ever think about using CLI.
