Re: 'Can't find test.ly'

[Mats Bengtsson]

Popular question today! I quote an answer I just sent one
minute ago:

I would rather recommend to install the non-Cygwin version
from http://lilypond.org/web/install/, unless you specifically
prefer Cygwin.
Otherwise, it's a known problem with the Cygwin version that you
have to specify a full search path to the file.
