Re: sponsering LilyPond if download works

[Rick Hansen (aka RickH)]

1) Create a new folder on your desktop (right click the screen and select
"new folder")

2) Open the new folder and right click inside of it and select "new text
document"

3) In the new text doc enter the following 3 lines, verbatim:

\version "2.8.5"
\include "english.ly"
{ c4 d e f g a b }

4) Close the text document and save it as "test.ly" in same folder (make
sure the file extension is .ly and not .txt)  (The files icon should be a LP
icon not a text document icon)

5) Double click the test.ly in the new folder.

6) You should then see the pdf and ps file in that same folder.  Note runing
LP for the very first time requires Windows to register the fonts (I
believe), so your first execution will take longer.  But after that its fast
enough.

7) If you see a pdf file, you're on your way, just "read the fine manual",
also download the many examples.  If no PDF then take a look at the .log
file in that same folder.

welcome
Rick
