I'm using 2.10.19 for Mac OSX
I've just had an irritating couple of hours trying to find out why a \midi block was causing an error message and stopping the file from processing. It turns out that if you use \new Score instead of \score then the file fails. These two commands should theoretically be identical.
Why does this happen, and could it be changed?
Compare:
%%%% BEGIN CODE (FAILS)
\new Score {
c1
\midi { }
}
%%%%% BEGIN CODE (WORKS)
\score {
c1
\midi { }
}
Cheers,
Vivian.
