I think all you need in Windows is an entry in your PATH like this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\LilyPond\usr\bin
Then type
convert-ly.py
and Windows will ask you what program you want to execute it with.
Select python.exe and you're done. At least that's how it works in my
version of Window
convert-ly.py is a python script, so you have to call it via python:
python convert-ly.py

In general, the way to execute convert-ly.py is not with
convert-ly.py
But instead
python convert-ly.py
If you create an executable batch file somewhere in your PATH called
convert-ly, with the contents
C:\Program Files (x86)\LilyPond\usr\bin\python.exe C:\Program Files
(x86)\LilyPond\usr

Clearly these other pythons have interfered with Lily somewhere and may have

Relying on the .py association is asking for these problems.
Get convert-ly to work with a single .ly file first.

The short answer is that there haven't been any syntax changes between
2.10.0 and 2.10.7, so there's no need to run convert-ly.
Anyway, the procedure is:
- Start a command prompt: Start Menu -> Programs -> Accessories ->
Command Prom
Other simple procedure , in the folder of myfile.ly,
open a new document text with your notepad,
write : convert-ly -e myfile.ly .
Save this document with the extension *.bat,
example : convert.bat .
Do launch with a double-clic on this file.

Changing fonts has become so much easier. See

for what it takes to put a Type1 font into LaTeX (let alone into
LilyPond) and compare it to dropping the .pfa into ~/.fonts and doing

I have the opposite opinion from Laura.
The first project I did using Lilypond was to convert an old file from 1.3
to 2.4.
It required a lot of hand editing. In the end, it is easier to hand edit a
file than to re-input all the notes. I had to manally move all the open
brackets for beaming o
