Unfortunately, I have never been able to get convert-ly to work.  It's
mostly my computer ignorance.  My files don't seem to be in simple places
and I never get the parameters correct.
so I have the file in C:\Documents and Settings\Frybyte\Desktop\Hamilton
it's called
my template.ly
it's version 2.10.25
I just tried to follow the instructions from the docs here's what I think it
says to do in run under xp
convert-ly --from C:\Documents and Settings\Frybyte\Desktop\Hamilton\
mytemplate.ly\version 2.10.25 --to C:\Documents and
Settings\Frybyte\Desktop\Hamilton\my template.ly version 2.12.2
That didn't work so what am I not understanding?
Sorry for total ignorance.
