There is no log file created when running from the CLI on Windows. Only
when you use the .exe (drag and drop or right-click context menu).
At least that is what I get on Windows 7 with 2.13.10

Sorry to post a reply to myself.
The thing here is that if you use the Lilypond.exe you DON'T get the
output (apart from the notes being displayed in the PDF) so it seems I
need to change the doc entry from
Displaying a music expression in LilyPond notation can be done using
the music function
\displayLilyMusic. For example,
to something like
Displaying a music expression in LilyPond notation can be done with
the music function
\displayLilyMusic, but only when using the command line. For example
Then the section is ok for Windows.

Thanks,
Then I guess if you run LilyPond at the CLI (on Windows anyway) with
just this statement in the *.ly file you get
C:\Users\jlowe\Desktop>lilypond test.ly
GNU LilyPond 2.13.10
Processing `test.ly'
Parsing...
{ a, cis e fis g }
Interpreting music...
Preprocessing graphical objects...
Solving 1 page-breaking chunks...[1: 1 pages]
Drawing systems...
Layout output to `test.ps'...
Converting to `./test.pdf'...
If I run it as
C:\Users\jlowe\Desktop>lilypond test.ly >display.txt
Then I get a display.txt file with *just* the '{ a, cis e fis g }'
stated (including the braces).
If this is the same for Linux then I could remove the 'what happens
under windows' comment in the itely file (as a patch)

Now this all seems to work however I always get a PDF file created
even if
the *.ly file contains
\version "2.13.6"
{
\displayLilyMusic \transpose c a, { c4 e g a bes }

This is correct. If you look at the console (umm... this would depend
on the way you run lilypond, I guess?), you should see a bunch of
extra text that you wouldn't see if the \displayLilyMusic wasn't
there.
The >display.txt just saves that extra text into a separate file,
instead of forcing people to scroll back through their console output
to find the stuff they want to see.
