I'm not sure what you mean here.

For instance in Windows there is

Control Panel\Programs\Default Programs\Set Associations

or

Control Panel\Programs\Default Programs\Set Default Programs

The first one actually has *.ly files associated with Frescobaldi (I'd
forgotten I had it installed!) so I assume that Frescobaldi does that file
association for you when you install it.

The second one does not have either Frescobaldi or LilyPond in the list. I
don't know if that matters if you just use 'Set Associations'.

So if I 'Set Associations' with *.ly files to use another program again
LilyPond is not in the list, but I can browse to the exe directly; and if I
do _that_ and then run the bat file I get:

--snip--

C:\Users\jlowe\Desktop>regQuery.bat Dak.ly
myApplicationCaller="C:\Program Files\LilyPond\usr\bin\lilypond.exe"
myEditor=lilypond.exe
myExt=.ly

--snip--

So does it matter (to you) that when a user installs LilyPond there are no
(I think - maybe Phil can correct me he uses LilyPond on Windows too) file
associations set - certainly no 'default programs'.

or was I supposed to point the file associations at something else
(lilypad.exe or lilypond-windows.exe etc.)?
