Hi,
thanks for your help.
It gives the same result:
if I go into my lilypond manifest or open lilypond with
guix shell lilypond nano mercurial timidity++
I can’t create a document with:
lilypond THE_FILENAME.ly
with:
guix shell lilypond nano -- nano test.ly
I can create a document.
I was able to clone your songbook
but
listen to it: > timidity delfini-tune.midi
was impossible. nothing happend after entering this command
to create a pdf was possible.
May be missing packages
like gtk stuff and something for midi.
>
with which command can I copy the songbook from this guix shell into my
home folder?
kind regards
Gottfried
