Which program opens lilypond? What is the exact information that needs to be typed?
I need this information for Win98SE.
LilyPond isn't an interactive program that you open. You type up a text
document in something simple like Notepad, and save it with a .ly
extension. I like to save it in c:\cygwin\home\name (where "name" is
your username in Cygwin), so you can then open Cygwin (you probably have
a shortcut for it on your desktop) and type "lilypond file.ly" where
file.ly is your text file. LilyPond will then come into play, and if
all goes well, it will produce a .pdf, a .ps, and a .mid file of your
music. See the documentation for more details, either online or on your
hard drive (mine's at
C:\cygwin\usr\share\doc\lilypond-2.2.2\index.html), especially the tutorial.
Good luck!
