Dear David,

FYI, I just hacked a simple version of Fomus support for Org babel 
(http://orgmode.org/, http://orgmode.org/org.html#Working-With-Source-Code). 
This was done in less than 1 hour, but already allows for a wide range of 
things, including literal programming of Fomus code.

Best,
Torsten

> Subject: Babel: 1st version for music notation language Fomus
> 
> Dear Babel developers, 
> 
> Inspired by the newly available Lilypond, I hacked up a first version of 
> language support for Fomus (http://fomus.sourceforge.net/). Briefly, Fomus is 
> a music notation system that translates a relatively simple domain specific 
> music language into multiple output formats, including Lilypond and MusicXML 
> (the latter is an open format supported by many commercial music notation 
> systems such as Finale and Sibelius). In a nutshell, Fomus can simplify the 
> generation of complex scores, because it can add various score information 
> automatically. Anyway, please find my first attempt of a Fomus integration 
> attached.

> This works already fine for standard code blocks such as the following. Note 
> that the result of this is a Lilypond file.
> 
> #+begin_src fomus :file test1.ly
>  time 0 dur 2 pitch 60; 
>  time 2 dur 1 pitch 62; 
>  time 3 dur 1 pitch 63; 
>  time 4 dur 4 pitch 65; 
> #+end_src
> 
> Of course, because this is a quick hack, various improvements can be made. 
> For example, it might be a good idea to allow for something like :file 
> test.pdf, where the resulting Lilypond call would see file.ly, but the 
> automatically inserted link in the org buffer would be the resulting file.pdf.
