Well, as a matter of fact, LilyPond uses Scheme to extend its functionality. This won't change. Ignoring this part is the same as refusing to learn, say, Japanese Kanji characters if you already know the Hiragana and Katakana syllable scripts. Without Kanji you are able to read children's books and many Manga cartoons, but you won't be able to read normal Japanese newspapers or books. If you are satisfied with children literature then everything's fine. Otherwise, you have to stretch your knowledge. In other words, an a-priori refusal of Scheme isn't helpful if you want to explore the capabilities of LilyPond. So I ask again: What exactly are the difficulties you have encountered? What concepts are badly explained, what examples are `greek' to you, and why? Simply skipping the Scheme code and asking for a non-Scheme solution isn't helpful either.
