I'm using version 2.1.0, by the way.
This is just a guess, but you're not giving much. :-)
Here's a little more:
All of my LP files are stored in ~/Documents/Lilypond. In that directory,
there is a subdirectory for each piece I work on. My current piece, Four
Brief Statements for Solo Guitar, is thus contained in the directory:
~/Documents/Lilypond/Statements, and contains st1.ly. This is only the
second piece I've begun working on w/ LP. The first piece worked fine; all
invocations of lilypond produced a .dvi and .pdf file. But while working on
Statements, LP only spits out a latex file. What has changed?
Do you have any of your output in a separate directory? If so,
it might be safer to use an output directory above the current,
by using ./out/ or something like that, rather than using a
fixed directory like /temp/out or something like that.
If you are suggesting that there is a default directory for output, I'd love
to find out how to set it.
I would like to know if this is a really stupid answer. daveA
