I was experimenting with the .sh binaries:
*********
$ sh lilypond-2.13.11-1.linux-64.sh
lilypond installer for version 2.13.11 release 1.
Use --help for help
You are about to install LilyPond in /home/owner/lilypond
A script in /home/owner/bin will be created as a shortcut.
Press ^C to abort, or Enter to proceed.
*********
This might surprise you, but at first I wasn't sure where or
when to type "--help". A confused user, wanting to change
the install directory, might do "--help<Enter>" at the
prompt, which is bad, because then the installation
proceeds. Instead of "Use --help for help", I'd put this:
*********
For a list of options, abort (^C) then do:
sh lilypond-2.13.11-1.linux-64.sh --help
*********
I've attached a patch for gub that incorporates this; let me
know if you don't like it... One question, though: I
changed the text in lilypond-sharhead.sh, but do I also need
to change it in sharhead.sh?
Thanks.
