I managed to get 'convert-ly' version 2.8.1 to run in Cygwin by doing the following:
1) I have Cygwin LilyPond 2.6.4 installed. This was installed in the default location using the 'setup' program. 2) I have Windows Lilypond 2.8.1 installed in the directory c:\nobackup\LilyPond. 3) I copied the convert-ly.py script from c:\nobackup\LilyPond\usr\bin in Windows world to /usr/bin in Cygwin world. 4) I copied c:\nobackup\LilyPond\usr\share\lilypond\current to /usr/share/lilypond/current. The script seems to run, but stops at conversion 2.7.40 and leaves the line \version "2.7.40" in the new file. (It started as "2.6.0".) Is this the expected outcome or should it have continued further?
