-@section Downloading
-
-Even numbered versions are `stable' (2.0, 1.8 etc), while odd version
-are development releases (2.1, 1.9, etc). Building LilyPond is an
-involved process, so if possible, download a precompiled binary from
-@uref{http://lilypond.org/,the lilypond site}.
-
-
-@subsection Source code
-
-Download source tarballs from here:
-@itemize @bullet
-@item Download development releases from
-@uref{http://lilypond.org/download/} by HTTP.
-@item @uref{ftp://sca.uwaterloo.ca/pub/} by FTP (Canadian mirror).
-@end itemize
-
-
-Use Xdelta to patch tarballs, e.g. to patch
-@file{lilypond-1.4.2.tar.gz} to @file{lilypond-1.4.3.tar.gz}, do
-@example
- xdelta patch lilypond-1.4.2-1.4.3.xd lilypond-1.4.2.tar.gz
-@end example
-
-For information on packaging and CVS, see
-@uref{http://lilypond.org/}, under ``development''.
-
-
-@subsection Precompiled binaries
-
-Check out @uref{http://lilypond.org} for up to date information on
-binary packages.
-
-
-@subsection Font problems
-
-If you are upgrading from a previous version of LilyPond, be sure to
-remove all old font files. These include @file{.pk} and @file{.tfm} files
-that may be located in @file{/var/lib/texmf}, @file{/var/spool/texmf},
-@file{/var/tmp/texmf} or @file{@var{prefix}/share/lilypond/fonts/}. A
-script automating this has been included, see
-@file{buildscripts/clean-fonts.sh}.
-
-
-
-
-@section Requirements
-
-@subsection Compilation
-
-You need the following packages to compile LilyPond:
-
-@itemize
-
-@item @uref{http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen/mftrace/,mftrace} (1.0.17 or
-newer),
-
- You will need to install some additional packages to get mftrace to
-work.
-
-@item @uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/guile.html,GUILE} (version 1.6.0 or newer).
-
-@item @uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/flex/,Flex} (version 2.5.4a or newer).
-
-WARNING: plain Flex 2.5.4(a) generates invalid C++ code. GCC 3.x
-chokes on this. If you wish to use GCC 3.x, make sure that your
-distribution supports g++ 3.x and flex. For workarounds, see
-lexer-gcc-3.1.sh in the source directory.
-
-@item @TeX{}.
-
-@TeX{} is used as an output backend.
-
-Also, @TeX{}'s libkpathsea is used to find the fonts (@file{.mf},
-@file{.afm}, @file{.tfm}). Make sure you have tetex 1.0 or newer
-(1.0.6 is known to work). You may need to install a tetex-devel (or
-tetex-dev or libkpathsea-dev) package too.
-
-@item @uref{ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/texinfo/,Texinfo} (version 4.6 or newer).
-
-@item The
-@uref{ftp://ftp.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/supported/geometry,geometry
-package for LaTeX}.
-
- This package is normally included with the @TeX{} distribution.
-
-@item kpathsea, a library for searching (@TeX{}) files.
-
-@item
- @uref{http://gcc.gnu.org/, The GNU c++ compiler} (version 3.1 or
-newer). EGCS and 2.x are known to cause crashes.
-
-@item @uref{http://www.python.org,Python} (version 2.1 or newer).
-
-@item @uref{ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make/,GNU Make} (version 3.78 or newer).
-
-@item @uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/,Bison} (version 1.25 or
-newer, but not 1.50 or 1.75).
-
-@item gettext
-
-@end itemize
-
-@subsection Running requirements
-
-GNU LilyPond does use a lot of resources. For operation you need the
-following software:
-
-@itemize @bullet
-@item @uref{http://lilypond.org/download/fonts,ec-fonts-mftraced}
-@item @uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/guile.html,GUILE} (version 1.6.0 or newer).
-@item @uref{http://www.python.org,Python} (version 2.1 or newer).
-@item @TeX{}.
-@item Xdvi and Ghostscript.
-@item @uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/guile.html,GUILE} 1.6.0, or newer.
-@end itemize
-
-You have to help @TeX{} and MetaFont find LilyPond support
-files. After compiling, scripts to do this can be found in
-@file{buildscripts/out/lilypond-profile} and
-@file{buildscripts/out/lilypond-login}.
-
-@subsection Building documentation
-
-You can view the documentation online at
-@uref{http://lilypond.org/doc/}, but you can also build it
-locally. This process requires a successful compile of lilypond. The
-documentation is built by issuing:
-@example
- make web
-@end example
-Building the website requires some additional tools and packages:
+@set INSTALL 1
-@itemize @bullet
-@item @uref{http://lilypond.org/download/fonts,ec-fonts-mftraced}
-@item The @uref{http://netpbm.sourceforge.net/,netpbm utilities}
-@item ImageMagick
-@end itemize
-
-The HTML files can be installed into the standard documentation path
-by issuing
-
-@example
- make out=www web-install
-@end example
-
-
-@section Building LilyPond
-
-To install GNU LilyPond, type
-@example
-gunzip -c lilypond-x.y.z | tar xf -
-cd lilypond-x.y.z
-./configure # run with --help to see appropriate options
-make
-make install
-sh buildscripts/clean-fonts.sh
-@end example
-
-The most time-consuming part of compiling LilyPond is tracing the
-Type1 fonts. You can shortcut this operation by issuing
-one of the following commands:
-
-@example
- make -C mf get-pfa # requires rpm2cpio
- make -C mf get-debian-pfa # may not be up to date
-@end example
-
-If you are doing an upgrade, you should remove all @file{feta}
-@code{.pk} and @code{.tfm} files. A script has been provided to do the
-work for you, see @file{buildscripts/clean-fonts.sh}.
-
-If you are not root, you should choose a @code{--prefix} argument that
-points into your home directory, e.g.:
-@example
- ./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr
-@end example
-
-In this case, you have to insert the contents of
-@code{buildscripts/out/lilypond-login} or
-@code{buildscripts/out/lilypond-profile} into your start up scripts by
-hand.
-
-
-
-@subsection Configuring for multiple platforms
-
-If you want to build multiple versions of LilyPond with different
-configuration settings, you can use the @code{--enable-config=CONF}
-option of configure. You should use @samp{make conf=CONF} to generate
-the output in @file{out-CONF}. Example: Suppose I want to build with
-and without profiling. Then I'd use the following for the normal
-build:
-
-@example
- ./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr/ --enable-checking
- make
- make install
-@end example
-
-and for the profiling version, I specify a different configuration:
-
-@example
- ./configure --prefix=$HOME/usr/ --enable-profiling --enable-config=prof --disable-checking
- make conf=prof
- make conf=prof install
-@end example
-
-
-
-@section Emacs mode
-
-An Emacs mode for entering music and running LilyPond is contained in
-the source archive in the @file{elisp} directory. @command{make
-install} installs it @var{elispdir}. The file @file{lilypond-init.el}
-should be placed to @var{load-path}@file{/site-start.d/} or appended
-to your @file{~/.emacs} or @file{~/.emacs.el}.
-
-As a user, you may want add your source path or, e.g., @file{~/site-lisp/}
-to your @var{load-path}. Append the following line (modified) to your
-@file{~/.emacs}:
-@c any reason we do not advise: (push "~/site-lisp" load-path)
-@quotation
-@example
-(setq load-path (append (list (expand-file-name "~/site-lisp")) load-path))
-@end example
-@end quotation
-
-
-@section Vim mode
-
-A Vim mode for entering music and running LilyPond is contained in the
-source archive. For version 6.2 and newer, Vim-mode works directly after
-installing LilyPond. Otherwise, complete the following two steps.
-
-For earlier versions (and if @code{$VIM} environment variable does not
-fall-back to @file{/usr/local/share/vim}, see @code{:version} in vim),
-the LilyPond file type is detected if your file @file{~/.vim/filetype.vim} @c
-has the following content:
-@example
- if exists("did_load_filetypes")
- finish
- endif
- augroup filetypedetect
- au! BufNewFile,BufRead *.ly setf lilypond
- augroup END
-@end example
-If Vim has been (pre-)installed to @file{/usr/...} (or any other place)
-instead of @file{/usr/local/...}, then @file{/usr/local/share/vim} may not
-be specified in your @code{$VIMRUNTIME} environment variable and you have to
-include this path explicitly by appending the following line to your
-@file{~/.vimrc}:
-@example
- set runtimepath+=/usr/local/share/vim/
-@end example
-
-@section Problems
-
-For help and questions use @email{lilypond-user@@gnu.org}. Send bug
-reports to @email{bug-lilypond@@gnu.org}.
-
-Bugs that are not fault of LilyPond are documented here.
-
-@subsection Bison 1.875
-
-There is a bug in bison-1.875: compilation fails with "parse error
-before `goto'" in line 4922 due to a bug in bison. To fix, either
-recompile bison 1.875 with the following fix:
-
-@example
- $ cd lily; make out/parser.cc
- $ vi +4919 out/parser.cc
- # append a semicolon to the line containing "__attribute__ ((__unused__))
- # save
- $ make
-@end example
-
-@subsection Linking to kpathsea
-
-If kpathsea and the corresponding header files are installed in some
-directory where GCC does not search by default, for example in
-@file{/usr/local/lib/} and @file{/usr/local/include/} respectively,
-you have to explicitly tell configure where to find it. To do this:
-
-@itemize
-@item @code{rm config.cache}
-@item @code{export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/share/texmf/lib}
-@item @code{export CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/share/texmf/include}
-@item @code{./configure}
-@end itemize
-Once configure has found them, the paths are stored in
-@file{config.make} and will be used even if you don't have the
-environment variables set during make.
-
-
-@unnumberedsubsec Gcc-3.0.4
-
-Gcc 3.0.4 is flaky; upgrade GCC.
-
-@unnumberedsubsec Flex-2.5.4a and gcc-3.x
-
-Flex 2.5.4a does not produce g++-3.1.1 compliant C++ code. To compile
-LilyPond with gcc-3.1.1 you may do
-
-@example
- CONF=gcc-3.1 ./lexer-gcc-3.1.sh
- CPPFLAGS=-I$(pwd)/lily/out-gcc-3.1 CC=gcc-3.1 CXX=g++-3.1 \
- ./configure --enable-config=gcc-3.1
- CONF=gcc-3.1 ./lexer-gcc-3.1.sh
- make conf=gcc-3.1
-@end example
-
-
-@unnumberedsubsec OpenBSD
-
-@itemize @bullet
-@item
- Refer to the section ``Linking to kpathsea'': GCC on OpenBSD doesn't
-set include paths for kpathsea.
-@end itemize
-
-@unnumberedsubsec NetBSD
-
-@itemize @bullet
-@item The flex precompiled in NetBSD-1.4.2 is broken.
-Upgrade to flex-2.5.4a.
-@end itemize
-
-@unnumberedsubsec Solaris
-
-@itemize @bullet
-@item Solaris7, ./configure
+@node Top
+@top
-@file{./configure} needs a POSIX compliant shell. On Solaris7,
-@file{/bin/sh} is not yet POSIX compliant, but @file{/bin/ksh} or bash
-is. Run configure like:
-@example
- CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/ksh ksh -c ./configure
-@end example
-or:
-@example
- CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash bash -c ./configure
-@end example
