how do i output a musicxml-finale file?

this is what i'm trying:

init :output (:lilypond :view t); init :output (:musicxml-finale :filename "fomusxxxmmmmlll");

if you're specifying two values for :output, then one will override the other----try this if you want both outputs:

init :filename "/dir/xxxxx" ;; basename init :output (:musicxml-finale (:lilypond :view t))

you should get /dir/xxxxx.xml and /dir/xxxxx.ly

or this:

init :filename "/dir/xxxxx" init :output ((:musicxml-finale :filename "anotherfilename.xml") (:lilypond :view t))

you should ge t /dir/anotherfilename.xml and /dir/xxxxx.ly
