Invoking Lilypond-book from Windows

[Carlos Garcia Suarez]

I am trying to collect a few notes on Lilypond by typing a Latex file in which music and text should be mixed.  But I can not get "Lilypond-book" to run. I am a Windows user so, I normally have to use "ly2dvi". Calling "Lilypond-book" from the cygwin shell does not work.   Any ideas ?     Thanks   Carlos
