    abc2ly tune.abc

This of course assumes that the abc2ly executable is in a directory on
your path.  And that you know what directory tune.abc is in.  If you
do, then you can expect tune.ly (the output from abc2ly) to be in the
same directory.

There's one option which may be useful -- if you want the lilypond
output to obey the ABC beaming conventions instead of just using
lily's ideas of how your time signature should be beamed, you might
want to say:

    abc2ly -b tune.abc
