Hi Fran=E7ois

Your post with the first-hand background about Lilypond is a very
interesting read for me, thank you.

Agreed. I did not mention that to be productive I would certainly use
Lilypond, preferably in Babel source blocks and for smaller scores
together with Org inline images.

Still I have some theoretical interest in 2-dimensional (time and
pitch) score notation in plain text (not the tablature that is
specific to an instrument). Maybe I will try to reach Neil to get an
impression of the now historical project.

Particularly interesting, I will have to remember that.
