As has already been stated. the Python bundled with LilyPond is
sufficiently functional to handle all the Python scripts such as midi2ly,
convert-ly, lilypond-book, ...
If you find any problem with any of these scripts, please send a bug
report.
I guess your real problem is that you have installed the native Python for
Windows
package from www.python.org and that LilyPond adds its own bin\ folder in
front
of that in the PATH. A solution to that would be add wrapper scripts around
all
these, just as is done in the LilyPond installation package for Linux. I
remember
that there were some problems with using wrapper BAT scripts in the Windows
installation package some years ago, but if those problems only were
related to
Win98, it might be worth to try a similar approach again.
