I think it could be enough to make a simple interface with an editor where you type in your lilypond code. The interface has just to show something like denemo does. It doesn't need to accept input. MIDI or not - I think that's not the question, because you can use lilypond to get it... Zis PS: yes, I use lilypond to compose, it's better than PMX... -- time passes, which is basically its job _______________________________________________ Lilypond-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
