Re: point and click brings up two emacs instances

[Mats Bengtsson]

lilypond-invoke-editor first tries to run emacs-client, which will
open the file in an existing emacs if
1. emacs was already started (otherwise lilypond-invoke-editor will 
start it using the "emacs" command).
2. The corresponding server is running in Emacs, i.e. you have a line like
(server-start)
in your  .emacs file  or you have  used the customization features in 
Emacs to set server-mode true.

Note also that if you have the any of the environment variables $EDITOR, 
$LYEDITOR or $XEDITOR set, then other things might happen.
