It produces beautiful sheet music using a -high level description file as input. It excels at typesetting classical -music, but you can also print pop-songs. With LilyPond we hope to make music -publication software available to anyone on the internet. - - The input to LilyPond is plain text. So, you can use your favorite text -editor to enter it, you can put it in mail or embed it in an article like -this: - - \relative c'' { \key c \minor; r8 c16 b c8 g as c16 b c8 d | g,4 } - - The output looks very good: the font and the layout algorithms were inspired -by engraved music, so you can expect that same clear and elegant look from -your LilyPond output. And if you don't like the looks, you can tweak almost -everything. - - The program also has limited MIDI functionality: you can write MIDI files -with lilypond, and we have a simple MIDI to lilypond conversion tool, midi2ly. -Conversion tools for PMX, MUP, ABC, Finale and Musedata are also included. - - LilyPond is free software. It is licensed under GNU General Public License, -so you can use, modify and redistribute the program with almost no -restrictions. LilyPond is part of the GNU Project. |
