What do you really want to do : converting a midi file to a lilypond file or output a midi file when processing a lilypond file ?
If you want to convert a midi file to lilypond file, the best way is to open a shell an look at 'man midi2ly' or 'midi2ly --help' to display the usage of the tool. the simpliest usage is : "midi2ly foo.midi" (wrote in a shell session, not into a .ly file) If you want to output a midi file when processing a lilypond file, you need to read the section about midi in the manual : http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.6/Documentation/user/lilypond/Creating-MIDI-files.html#Creating-MIDI-files A.
