lilypond on windows

[David Bruce]

Hi

I've successfully installed the windows version of lilypond and have generated a pdf from the test.ly file provided. However, when I go to the command prompt and try

 

lilypond --help

 

it says 'lilypond' is not recognised as an internal or external command operable program or batch file.

 

If you could help me access it from there I'd be most grateful.

Also, are there any sample scripts in perl for how to generate files from a perl script? I would like to be able to call lilypond from a web page.
Many thanks for your help

David Bruce
