Installing LilyPond on Windows 2000

[David Bolton]

To whom it may concern,

I followed the procedures for downloading/installing LilyPond outlined at:
http://www.lilypond.org/web/download/windows.html

It put a shortcut on my desktop labled, "Cygwin". If I open this, it
opens a DOS prompt window. I type in "lilypond" and it gives me a few
options that I don't really understand. What do I need to do to make
the test.ly file produce a pdf file.

Double-clinking on the test.ly from the desktop only ask me for a
program to open it with.
