New issue 2209 by [email protected]: lilypond-book creates uncompilable latex files (windows)
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2209

I get two errors while trying to compile a latex file created by lilypond-book under windows. See Issue 1815 for a test file and instruction. Once the .tex file is created try
pdflatex lilypond-bug.tex

The first error you get is:

! Undefined control sequence.
l.22 \input 7a\lily
                    -66ef7aa2-systems.tex
?

because in the .tex file backslashes introduce a latex macro; for a path separator, use forward slashes instead.

Since Latex asks for a filename I can enter the correct one and proceed further:

! I can't find file `7a-66ef7aa2-systems.tex'.
l.22 \input 7a\lily-66ef7aa2-systems.tex

Please type another input file name: 7a/lily-66ef7aa2-systems.tex
("C:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\test\7a/lily-66ef7aa2-systems.tex"

Then the second error happens:

! LaTeX Error: File `/Program Files/LilyPond/usr/test/ly-neu/7a/lily-66ef7aa2-1
' not found.

See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type  H <return>  for immediate help.
  ...

l.1 ...ilyPond/usr/test/ly-neu/7a/lily-66ef7aa2-1}
                                                   %
?

Here the path misses the drive letter C:, but I think the generated .tex file should be using a relative path anyway.
