Hello Michael, list,


I am getting the following error message in the Mac Terminal, which I
do not know how to fix, and is keeping me from running LilyPond. I
saved test.ly as a text file, and tried putting it in different
folders. Any other solutions?

Thanks,

lilypond (GNU LilyPond) 2.2.5
Running lilypond-bin...
warning: can't find file: `test'


Are you sure you typed the command 'lilypond test.ly'? Notice the .ly
after the file name.

Not necessary, since lilypond automatically will add the suffix if you
don't type it yourself.

The real problem for you is probably to realize what directory you
are in when you type the command. I recommend to read the folowing
instructions recently posted to the mailing list for more information:
