Hi, I would guess that wyanshan talks about LilyPad which comes pre- installed with LilyPond and opens up a welcome file IIRC, coming from the ly/ directory in LilyPond's tree. The sources for the editor are over here: https://github.com/gperciva/lilypad. Personally I would not put effort into this, we should just advertise Frescobaldi which is way better. Or just using a standard editor which syntax highlighting.
