Re: Lilypond on Ubuntu

[David Stocker]

To clarify, a decent location for the documentation files would be 
/home/yourusername/lilypond-documentation where "yourusername" is the 
special name of your particular home folder and "lilypond-documentation" 
is the name of the folder where you extract the documentation tarball. 
Leave out the extra "/"s around "yourusername" (I tried to put it in 
italics in the earlier post).
