Re: Problem with opening Cygwin
So, it seems that you have downloaded the program successfully. Follow the instructions at http://lilypond.org/web/install/windows on how to run a test file. Then go on to read the Tutorial. LilyPond is very different from most other programs you have seen in Windows, but once you get used to it, I hope you will find it very convenient. At least that's what many others on the mailing list have found. /Mats [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I look forward to using this program.

Re: Problem with opening Cygwin
I installed the 2.5 Development Branch instead of the 2.4 CygWin one. Simply clicking the install link gave me an exe I downloaded and ran, which set everything up. Then you can just create a .ly file in your favorite text editor and double-click it to have it run through LilyPond and output beautiful PDFs. At the bottom of this page are instructions for uninstalling: http://lilypond.org/web/install/windows. (If you have nothing else under CygWin, you can just toast the whole directory.) Good luck! -ATR- On 6/20/05, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, I look forward to using this program.
