It seems that the developers are still working to sort out these
issues. As long as you use the installation of version 2.4 using
Cygwin, all these programs are available and working and can be
called from the Cygwin command prompt.

Mats- that's very interesting.
What I can't see/find in the archives, or maybe just don't understand is
how to acquire
abc2ly or the midi2ly or python for that matter.
Also when the instruction say invoke-
I know where and how to do that in linux but am a bit uncertain as to
how to go about that in XP-
Does it mean that the program is already part of lily and that I need to
run it from a command line?

The LilyPond distribution does indeed contain a program called
abc2ly, see the section on "Converting from other formats in the
LilyPond manual.
However, if you use the new installation package for Windows, there
are some extra tricks needed to run the extra programs like convert-ly
and abc2ly, since they rely on the program Python that isn't included
in the installation (at least as far as I know) see the mailing list
archives for more information.

If you know anything about abc files? It's a system mostly for trad
(read folk) music usually single line though it is more flexible than
that. Anyway the 'programing' is similar, rather simple and then you
just need a program to translate it to notation.
Again similar to the convert.ly part of lily except lily doesn't read
abc files.
Tabledit does and it's something else that you could be familar with
as it is both a notation/guitar program and does some of what lily
does too.
