native LilyPond port for Microsoft Windows

[Jan Nieuwenhuizen]

The past weeks I've spent my lily development time on a mingw port and
installer for windows.  I'm sure this is far from perfect, but I do
not want to hold it back any longer.

The installer is not directly aimed at Cygwin/unix gurus, but rather
meant for people who just want to use LilyPond.  The plan is that
after downloading and running the 12MB setup.exe, everything just
works, including point and click.  The only additional software needed
is a PDF reader like Adobe Acrobat.

Download from

    http://lilypond.org/mingw/setup.exe

send success reports, bug reports, and patches here.

I'm especially interested in information about using and integrating
editors like [nt]emacs or jEdit, and usage with Cygwin.

Jan.
