Hi Bertalan,
Thanks for your reply.
Using the PDF file is not possible for updating since Lilypond deletes the old PDF before writing the new one which means closing the pdf before running lilypond. So viewing the postscript file is the way to go. As I said before gsview for some reason is unable to display lilypond .ps files and as far as I can see is really the only postscript viewer for windows.
VSD replied earlier saying there was a view postscript command in lily4jedit which I use with lilypond. He said that this is doesn't work with the latest lily4jedit version (0.2.8-6) which I'm also using... with windows native version 2.7 of lilypond.
Regards,
Trent

Regarding PDF viewing, I'm trying to embed multivalent (www.sourceforge.net/projects/multivalent) into lily4jedit, but its developer just don't release his latest version, which I would need. Perhaps you should write some feature request or into the general discussion forums, to make him release.
Another possible solution is to use gsview (GhostScript viewer) to view the PDF (setting it as the external PDF viewer in lily4jedit). However, I don't know how to configure it to use point-and-click. (It would be very-very good if someone gave a hint.)

Please make a bug tracker at www.sourceforge.net/projects/lily4jedit
