lilypond-book

[bubba]

I've having trouble using lilypond-book.  I'm a brand new lilypond user - I just
installed it two days ago for the first time.  I can use lilypond just fine, but
I haven't been able to figure out how to use lilypond-book.  I'm running Windows
XP and lilypond 2.8.0.1.  I've read through the tutorial section on
lilypond-book and the user manual section on it (although I didn't see any
difference between them).  I've tried different options.  I've read through the
mailing list archive - not much help for a complete newbie.  And, I still
haven't been able to get it to work.

Overall, I think lilypond is awesome.  My brother is a musician getting his
masters/doctorate.  He's home for the summer and I fully intend on getting him
hooked on this program.  But, I want to get lilypond-book to work first.  I
would appreciate any pointers anyone can give me.
