For example call LilyPond with (something like (adjust to the Windows environment)
  lilypond-windows.exe -I C:\openLilyLib path\to\document.loy

 

See if I have it: I run lilypond-windows.exe then i enter  -I C:\openLilyLib path\to\document.loy .

this adds the C:\openLilyLib  directory to the file document.loy ?

Now if I use the include with the path  C:\openLilyLib , dose Lilypond search all the directories and subdirectories of openLilyLib or do i need an include  ...\directory\file for each file I use?

If this is getting to be to much to ask on basic let me know?

Thank you, ƒg

When using Frescobaldi, go to Edit=>Preferences=>LilyPond Preferences and add the directory to the "LilyPond include path:" section at the bottom of the page.
