-
-The scripts (such as lilypond-book, convert-ly, abc2ly, and even
-lilypond itself) are also
-included inside MacOS X .app. They can be run from the command line by
-invoking them directly, e.g.
-
-@example
-@var{path/to}/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond
-@end example
-
-@noindent
-The same is true of the other scripts in that directory, including
-lilypond-book, convert-ly, abc2ly, etc.
-
-Alternatively, you may create scripts which add the path
-automatically. Create a directory to store these scripts,
-
-@example
-mkdir -p ~/bin
-cd ~/bin
-@end example
-
-Create a file called @code{lilypond} which contains
-
-@example
-exec @var{path/to}/LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/bin/lilypond "$@@"
-@end example
-
-Create similar files @code{lilypond-book}, @code{convert-ly}, and
-any other helper programs you use (@code{abc2ly}, @code{midi2ly},
-etc). Simply replace the @code{bin/lilypond} with
-@code{bin/convert-ly} (or other program name) in the above file.
-
-Make the file executable,
-
-@example
-chmod u+x lilypond
-@end example
-
-Now, add this directory to your path. Modify (or create)
-a file called @code{.profile} in your home directory such that it contains
-
-@example
-export PATH=$PATH:~/bin
-@end example
-
-@noindent
-This file should end with a blank line.
-
-Note that @var{path/to} will generally be @code{/Applications/}.

-@item LilyPondTool
-
-Created as a plugin for the @uref{http://@/www@/.jedit@/.org@/,jEdit} text
-editor, LilyPondTool is the most feature-rich text-based tool for editing
-LilyPond scores. Its features include a Document Wizard with lyrics
-support to set up documents easier, and embedded PDF viewer with advanced
-point-and-click support. For screenshots, demos and installation
-instructions, visit @uref{http://lilypondtool@/.organum@/.hu}

-
-All these editors can be made to jump into the input file to the source
-of a symbol in the graphical output. See @ref{Point and click}.
-
-
-@node Point and click
-@section Point and click
-@cindex point and click
-
-
-Point and click lets you find notes in the input by clicking on them
-in the PDF viewer. This makes it easier to find input that causes
-some error in the sheet music.
-
-When this functionality is active, LilyPond adds hyperlinks to the PDF
-file. These hyperlinks are sent to the web-browser, which opens a
-text-editor with the cursor in the right place.
-
-To make this chain work, you should configure your PDF viewer to
-follow hyperlinks using the @file{lilypond-invoke-editor} script
-supplied with LilyPond.
-
-For Xpdf on Unix, the following should be present in
-@file{xpdfrc}@footnote{On unix, this file is found either in
-@file{/etc/xpdfrc} or as @file{.xpdfrc} in your home directory.}
-
-@example
-urlCommand "lilypond-invoke-editor %s"
-@end example
-
-The program @file{lilypond-invoke-editor} is a small helper
-program. It will invoke an editor for the special @code{textedit}
-URIs, and run a web browser for others. It tests the environment
-variable @code{EDITOR} for the following patterns,
-
-@table @code
-@item emacs
- this will invoke
-@example
-emacsclient --no-wait +@var{line}:@var{column} @var{file}
-@end example
-@item vim
- this will invoke
-@example
-gvim --remote +:@var{line}:norm@var{char} @var{file}
-@end example
-
-@item nedit
-this will invoke
-@example
- nc -noask +@var{line} @var{file}'
-@end example
-@end table
-
-The environment variable @code{LYEDITOR} is used to override this. It
-contains the command line to start the editor, where @code{%(file)s},
-@code{%(column)s}, @code{%(line)s} is replaced with the file, column
-and line respectively. The setting
-
-@example
-emacsclient --no-wait +%(line)s:%(column)s %(file)s
-@end example
-
-@noindent
-for @code{LYEDITOR} is equivalent to the standard emacsclient
-invocation.
-
-
-@cindex file size, output
-
-The point and click links enlarge the output files significantly. For
-reducing the size of PDF and PS files, point and click may be switched
-off by issuing
-
-@example
-#(ly:set-option 'point-and-click #f)
-@end example
-
-@noindent
-in a @file{.ly} file. Alternately, you may pass this as an command-line
-option
-
-@example
-lilypond -dno-point-and-click file.ly
-@end example
