Command line Inkscape under OSX
I have installed Inkscape.app under Mac OSX Leopard. Inkscape works just great as a mac app.
I have Inkscape 0.46-devel, built jun 23 2008. I have OS X version 10.5.5.
Now I want to build the LilyPond web site (www.lilypond.org). This process requires a command line inkscape in order to render some graphics. When I try to run the scripts, I get the following message:
inkscape --export-area-drawing --export-png=de/graphics/annotate-example-1.png --export-background-opacity=0 de/graphics/annotate-example-1.svg make[1]: inkscape: Command not found
I've tried locating inkscape from the command line
shell> which inkscape
and it can't be found.
I've also tried to find a file named inkscape on my Mac using Finder. I can't find a file named inkscape (which is what I assume would be needed to run inkscape from the command line). I do find Inkscape.app.
Is there a path spec I need to add, or a symlink, or something of the sort? Any pointers on how to make Inkscape available from the command line?
Thanks,
Carl Sorensen
It can be found at /Applications/Inkscape.app/Contents/Resources/bin/inkscape
