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.
