Hello,

 

Does 2.18 install over the previous version (2.16.2 for me), or must the previous version be uninstalled first?

I think this REALLY should be made quite clear in the installation instructions. It is a question is one might quite reasonably anticipate.

My own experience is that a new install wipes out the old, but this may be an illusion - if all that's happening is a pointer is being redirected to the new install location.

PLEASE - SOMEONE CLARIFY THIS, then update the installation instructions at the Ly site so this question is answered right there.

http://www.lilypond.org/doc/v2.17/Documentation/usage/invoking-convert_002dly

gives instructions for converting files.

 

My command prompt comes up as

C:\users\Owner>.

Should I then complete it to be

C:\users\Owner> convert-ly –e *.ly?

 

My Lilypond files are in an external hard driver. Does that require some alternation in the command?

 

Thank you for your kind attention.

 

Mark
