Re: Lilypond-book, now 1.5.73 still does not work

[Carlos]

In adition to my mail below here is most disconcerning example. The same
simple example works one way but not the other.

While this works and generates the appropriatte eps file:

    \documentclass {book}
    \begin {document}
    % this one works fine
    \ chapter {Prueba}
     Esto es simplemente una prueba antes
            \begin[26pt,eps]{lilypond}
            c'4 d' e' f' g' a' b' c''
            \end{lilypond}
    y tambien despues
    \end {document}


The following one does not work, making Lilypond-book to wait for ever, with
a msg "reading document"

\documentclass {book}
\begin {document}
\chapter {Prueba}
Esto es simplemente una prueba antes
    \begin[26pt,eps]{lilypond}
        \score {
        \notes { c'4 d' e' f' g' a' b' c'' } }
    \end{lilypond}
y tambien despues
\end {document}

What the hell is going here ? it is essentially the same thing? or is it you
can not put a score within Lilypond-book.
