Dear lilypond creator,

I do not know whether I write to an exsisting person or an answering
computer, but anyway, I would like to thank the inventors of Lilypond for
their kindness to share this program with everybody who likes to write music.

One the program works I will be pleased to share my writen material with
whom  it want. I do not know whether the purpose of this email adres is to
function as helpdesk, but I try anyway and sorry for bothering you.

I have installed lilypond for windows and followed your stating
instructions inwhich you advise to make a file foo.ly with some text in it
and subsequently let the program compile the measage in a visible piece of
music by ghostscript. At least this is how I understand it. Initially I got
the measage that gostscript was missing on my computer, so I have down
loaded the program. The lilypond program seems to work fine, I get the
information "output to 'foo.ps', DVI output to 'foo.dvi'. After typing
ly2dvi -P foo gostscript opens and tells me the following:

After removing this measage I end up with an empty foo.ps file. I an a
stupid windows user with little knowledge on computer programming, could
you give me a clue what to do?

Thanks a lot in advance.
