<p>The <samp><span class="command">lilypond</span></samp> executable may be called as follows from the command line.
<pre class="example"> lilypond [<var>option</var>]... <var>file</var>...
</pre>
<p>When invoked with a filename that has no extension, the <samp><span class="file">.ly</span></samp>
extension is tried first. To read input from stdin, use a
dash (<code>-</code>) for <var>file</var>.
<p>When <samp><span class="file">filename.ly</span></samp> is processed it will produce <samp><span class="file">filename.ps</span></samp>
and <samp><span class="file">filename.pdf</span></samp> as output. Several files can be specified;
they will each be processed independently. <a rel="footnote" href="#fn-1" name="fnd-1"><sup>1</sup></a>
<p>If <samp><span class="file">filename.ly</span></samp> contains more than one <code>\score</code>
block, then the rest of the scores will be output in numbered files,
starting with <samp><span class="file">filename-1.pdf</span></samp>. In addition, the value of
<code>output-suffix</code> will be inserted between the basename and the
number. An input file containing
<pre class="example"> #(define output-suffix "violin")
\book { ... }
#(define output-suffix "cello")
\book { ... }
</pre>
<p class="noindent">will output <var>base</var><samp><span class="file">-violin.pdf</span></samp> and
<var>base</var><samp><span class="file">-cello-1.pdf</span></samp>.

<h4>Footnotes</h4><p class="footnote"><small>[<a name="fn-1" href="#fnd-1">1</a>]</small> The status of
GUILE is not reset after processing a <code>.ly</code> file, so be careful
not to change any system defaults from within Scheme.</p>
