Finally I got it done. All I have to do is to go to Control Panel in
Window and click at User Accounts. Once I am there, I can change my full
name from "Nguyen Quoc Toan" to "Toan"
I am able to run the test program and see the pdf file.
I am so excited, thanks, guys.
I've been searching for an effective program to write music score but
couldn't get one. All the user-interface programs are not very helpful
and too bulky. My friends use LilyPond and I love it.
Thanks again and keep the good work.
Toan

that's curious, where did this come from? The cygwin release is at 1.6.8
AFAICT.

Yes, Try renaming your directory to something without spaces.
