Hi y'all,
I'm arranging some Haydn string quartets and found some Lilypond
files of them on Mutopia, but when I go to generate them I get an
error saying that the version is too old (2.6.0) and that only
versions 2.7.38 and up are supported. I'd hate to have to create
the whole thing again, so does anyone know an easy (or at least
easier) way around this? I tried simply deleting the version
number from the text file, but somehow Lilypond still "knows". I
can't seem to find an old enough version of Lilypond to download
either that might still support 2.6.0.
These are the files I'm talking about:

One possible solution I thought of was to find more recent files
providing string quartet "architecture", and just transfer the
Haydn music into that. But if anyone has a better idea, any help
would be much appreciated!

It will be a bit tedious, Brent, but convert-ly seems to do the
trick. I've no idea if it can be run in batch mode, but using a
tool such as Jedit or Frescobaldi should make the process a bit
easier.
