Hi Jean,

The following code is in v2.23.11 and it run OK.

\version "2.23.11"

\markup "test"

And the log file is :

Starting lilypond.exe 2.23.11 [Untitled (11)]...

Processing `C:/Users/YMINGT~1/AppData/Local/Temp/frescobaldi-7krgt6o3/tmprbzc8juy/document.ly'

Parsing...

Does the error reproduce in 2.23.10, and if so, can you paste the exact
error message (with the line numbers)?

What is the name of the file? This sounds like LilyPond is mistaking it
for one of its internal files.
