I hope you have tried what I suggested in the first response:

Just rerun setup.exe and make sure to follow the instructions at
http://lilypond.org/web/download/windows.html on how to select
the lilypond package.

If it still doesn't work, please read more at the bottom of that
WWW page to see what information to include in your next email
to the mailing list.

Graham, Mats,

I tried the installation again, but my PC still doesn't have any association for
.ly files.
This may seem a silly question, but is Lilypond a part of Cygwin (or the other
way round)? Could I be missing the Lilypond program?

I have something called "Cygwin Bash Shell" on my menu, which pops up a command
window for an instant. After my first installation attempt, this window would
pop up and stay up, but now it's just a flash. It looked like any other command
window, but it did not recognise Lilypond as a command or program.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Edwin.

I just ran through the installation of Cygwin/Lilypond. I downloaded the test.ly
file, but it does not appear to have any association with Lilypond. The PC
doesn't know what to open it with. I'm running Win2k. I do have the Cygwin icon
on my Start menu. Where is the Lilypond program?


You need to run Lilypond from the command prompt.  If Cygwin/Lilypond was
installed properly, then Lilypond should be in the path -- simply open the
command prompt and type "lilypond test.ly".

No! If the installation worked, you will certainly be able to just
double-click on the file to process it.
