Exporting to Lilipond

2009-03-15 09:07 pm

I have downloaded, unzipped and saved the nwc2ly application to C disk.
I opened a previously made nwc2 file.
I pressed Alt + f8 to open the User tools dialogue.
I clicked on New and filled in Name as "Noteworthy Composer to Lilypond exporter" and Command as "C:\nwc2ly\nwc2ly.exe" as instructed.
Then I clicked OK - and absolutely nothing happened!
What am I doing wrong, please??

Now that you have it defined, you actually need to use the tool on some input.
If I run it on this:

Quote

!NoteWorthyComposerClip(2.0,Single)
|Clef|Type:Treble
|Key|Signature:C
|TimeSig|Signature:3/4
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:-1
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:0
|Note|Dur:4th|Pos:1
|Bar
!NoteWorthyComposerClip-End

I get this:
