Obtaining LilyPondYou can get the latest version of LilyPond at ftp://ftp.lilypond.org/pub/LilyPond/. Windows build requirementsYou need the following packages to compile Lilypond on Windows.
These binaries are cross compiled for Windows on a GNU/Linux box. You may want to check out the cross compilation scripts. Windows installation specificsInstalling LilyPond on Windows is similar to a unix installation, but
needs a number of extra tricks. All code for these tricks can be found
in the source package directory
These scripts and tricks are known to work in some cases, but are woefully incomplete. If you find a bug, please send us your fix. Windows users have indicated that a DOS style login (as supposed to the LilyPond/Cygwin shell), would be useful. We don't enjoy DOS scripting, and think users should try the bash shell, which is better suited for typing in commands. However, if you have written useful DOS login scripts, please send us your code. |
