RE: LilyPond hangs at "parsing" |

Bingo! (I hope) - When I made the DOS to Unicode change, I also added a
version line to a definitions file. Stripping that line seems to have
brought back my file. I also opened it and my <Section test.ly> in
jEdit, made a change in each, and saved them. Now I seem to be able to
run each of them.
Does that make sense to anyone? Is there something going on here that I
don't understand?

Hi -
I'm running LilyPond 2.8.4.1 under Window XP SP2.
I recently switched from jEdit to ConTEXT (with the new LilyPond
highlighter). I had no problem for a few days; then suddenly yesterday
LilyPond started to hang. I can't get my files to complete. The only
global change I can remember making yesterday was to convert text from
DOS to Unicode. In order to find the source of the problem, I started
commenting out my music. I got all the way back to the first measure,
with no success. So, I tried a new file:
Snippet
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\version "2.8.4.1"
Music = {
\clef treble
\key c \major
\time 4/4
\tempo 4=112
a'4 b'4 c'4 d'4
}
\score {
\Music
}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
End Snippet
I typed all of it fresh - no copy and paste. When I run it, I get the
same message in the log, with no .ps or .pdf produced. Here's the log:
# -*-compilation-*-
Changing working directory to `C:/Documents and Settings/rpalmer/My
Documents/Ralph/Sheet Music/LilyPond/Classical/Deak/Lad a dog'
Processing `C:/Documents and Settings/rpalmer/My Documents/Ralph/Sheet
Music/LilyPond/Classical/Deak/Lad a dog/section test.ly'
Parsing...
I had an old file that was not converted to Unicode, and it compiled
correctly. Does this look familiar to anyone? I hope it doesn't mean I
have to retype all my music.
Thanks for your help,
Ralph
