Hello, Nils:

Welcome to Lilypond!

> warning: can't find file: `test'

I hope this is not too "simple" an answer, but make sure that when you 
are in the Terminal window, you are in the directory where your source 
file is located.

i.e. (an example -- be sure to use your real path, or type "cd " and 
then drop the file onto the Terminal window for auto-type)

> cd /Users/nils/Documents/
> lilypond test.ly

Hope this helps!
Kieren.
