I found an answer, but got "option --png not recognized" Error

[Josh Don]

 

I asked a question before, this answer works better than anything you guys told me,
it lets me run lilypond from WSH...

C:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe --login -c "/usr/bin/lily-wins C:/t.ly"

the problem is it doesn't recognise the command line options.
I've tried other options and, I've tried them from the cygwin prompt.
I've tried them in quotes and things. What is up with this?...

C:/cygwin/bin/bash.exe --login -c "/usr/bin/lily-wins --png C:/t.ly"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/lily-wins", line 56, in ?
    (opts, files)=getopt.getopt (sys.argv[1:],'dh', ['help', 'debug'])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/getopt.py", line 89, in getopt
    opts, args = do_longs(opts, args[0][2:], longopts, args[1:])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/getopt.py", line 153, in do_longs
    has_arg, opt = long_has_args(opt, longopts)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/getopt.py", line 170, in long_has_args
    raise GetoptError('option --%s not recognized' % opt, opt)
getopt.GetoptError: option --png not recognized
