Re: Not able to open (Typset) ls. files

[Mats Bengtsson]

I assume that you downloaded the .ly files from Mutopia.
The program has evolved significantly since version 1.5.66
when these files were uploaded to Mutopia. The convert-ly
utility is able to update most syntax changes to the current
version, but it is a well-known problem that it doesn't handle
100% of the changes without problems, so some manual
editing may be necessary when you have such old score files
to make them fully compatible with current LilyPond.

If you want more specific hints on how to solve the
problems you have encountered, send copies of the
error printouts and the corresponding lines from the
input files to the lilypond-user mailing list.
