Hi--

I'm fairly new to lilypond, and am starting to write my own ly files to
include. I want to put them somewhere that will be accessible easily from
any score (user defaults). The only place I've so far been able to find to
put them is inside the lilypond application package itself
(/Applications/Lilypond.app/Contents/Resources/share/lilypond/current/ly).
This obviously is annoying when I upgrade lilypond, as I have to dig in
there and copy my files to the new one.

Is there some place I can put them so that I can still just "\include
asdf.ly" (without a path), but which is not inside the package itself?
Something along the lines of ~/Library/lilypond or /usr/share/lilypond?

There is not such features in LilyPond yet (but I'd love this too).
Denis made a similar request on lilypond-devel a few days ago.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2011-12/msg00073.html
No developer replied at the moment; I hope one will say something
about it.  Then I suppose it could be added to the tracker (cc: to
bug-lilypond) as a new feature request.

Cheers,
Xavier
