Just adding ".py" to lilypond-book didn't work for me. At the command
line I got a message that "lilypond-book" was not an executable. From
the Windows file folder a command screen popped up for a split second,
then vanished.
But here's another way to do this: create a file called
lilypond-book.bat somewhere in your PATH, then paste this into it:
@python3 "C:\Program Files (x86)\LilyPond-2.22.2\usr\bin\lilypond-book" %*
You should be able to type "lilypond.book" anywhere you cd to.
