Recently I made some experimentation with SmartEye, which is an excellent scanner and interpreter for notes.
It produces besides its own music format and midi either NIFF od MusicXML output.
If I now want to work with PMX on scanned notes,
then it would be great to be able to import any of these formats into PMX.
What do you think?

Do we? Yes, there are several "text-based" formats for describing
music (MusiXTeX, PMX, M-Tx, ABC, PMW, LY, ... ). But why would
anyone need to *inter-convert* these unless they were abandoning a
format and needed to convert "legacy" files to another format?
Pandoc is needed because there are often imposed requirements for
"intermediate" formats; for example, documentation sources must
be in a specific format or a pointy-headed boss insists on .doc
format. But for us, there are rarely such requirements; we are just
producing music scores (and parts) and midis; once we've learned
a suitable input language, there's no reason routinely to convert
descriptions to another.
