Hello, I am the creator of Parallel Square Premusic, a text file format for the composition of musical notation. My notation is documented at http://anticapit.al/ps/Premusic.html and http://anticapit.al/ps/Parallel Squares..html I did get involved over in lilypond-user, but I suppose that was the wrong place to ask. I apologize for the ruckus that that was. I simply want to show you the wonderful, extensible file format I have developed. With any text editor - no program needed to install - you can dictate the entire rhythm of a song in damn near real time. Once that has been done, the layout of the entire rest of the score is comfortably set. My format is flawlessly extensible. Attached is an example: The Star Spangled Banner in my format. VAC
