Hi folks,
I'm in the process of writing up some of the previously undocumented
features in the NEWS files. I'm having a bit of trouble with this comment:
**********
The default paper size may now be set from the command line using
-dpaper-size.
**********
I'm having trouble passing paper sizes to it. I've tried these:
lilypond -dletter sample.ly
lilypond -da5 sample.ly
lilypond -dA5 sample.ly
lilypond -da3 sample.ly
In all cases I get the default a4 output and a warning:
warning: no such internal option: letter (a5 or whtever it was.)
After looking at the usage statement I tried
lilypond -dpaper-size=a5 sample.ly
but I get:
ERROR: Unbound variable: a5
I've played around with a few other possibilities, with no good result.
Can somebody tell me how this option is supposed to be called? Thanks in
advance,
Cameron
