Um, Lilypond has no GUI. This is frankly rather clear if you read the
Lilypond FAQ. There are other programs, such as NoteEdit or
RoseGarden which do GUI entry of notes and can export to Lilypond
format.
Can't speak to your problems installing it; I don't recall problems
with the couple of times I've done Lilypond installs.

True; Lilypond has great output but the input side is severely
lacking. Although I must say, I for one would kill to have the kind
of scriptability that I can perform with Lilypond available for either
of those programs.
