# Questions
## Do you have any thoughts on generating scores in chant notation (neumes)?
-
I'm not familiar with typesetting chant notation, so I suggest reading
this specific section of the manual for information.
## Do you use this to compose or to write up compositions&#x2026;?
-
No and yes. I use pencil and paper to compose the first draft. Then I
move to Emacs to input the notes. Either way it's certainly possible
to compose from Emacs directly, especially if you're doing this
programatically, so I guess it depends on what you're trying to do.
-## Can one use MIDI/USB instruments (like keyboards) to input Lilypond? For example for note heights?
+## Can one use MIDI/USB instruments (like keyboards) to input LilyPond? For example for note heights?
-[Don't know about emacs, but Frescobaldi supports MIDI input.]
+[Don't know about Emacs, but Frescobaldi supports MIDI input.]
There is a package called `midi-kbd` which creates keyboard events
from MIDI input, so I believe the answer is yes, but I don't own a
MIDI device, so I haven't tried it.
## Did you ever write huge scores (BigBand/Orchestra) in Emacs?
-
Never, but that's certainly possible.
-## Is there a decent OCR for handwritten music→Lilypond?
-
+## Is there a decent OCR for handwritten music→LilyPond?
I'm not sure, but if the OCR works with MusicXML, then you can use the
`musicxml2ly` command to convert the XML file to a LilyPond file.
## What shell are you using with the fancy autocomplete?
-
Zsh with fzf.
## Do you use any kind of Emacs to MIDI interface besides exporting MIDI from LilyPond?
-
No.
# Notes
-
-- Emacs and LilyPond integration
-- Similar to LaTeX — has its own file format and syntax, and can export to MIDI
-- (info "(lilypond-learning) Top")
-- Low contrast between background and foreground
-- Uses LilyPond-mode and flycheck

+- Emacs + LilyPond.
+- Similar to LaTeX — has its own file format and syntax, can also export to MIDI.
+- `(info "(lilypond-learning) Top")`
+- The contrast between background and foreground is a little too weak.
+- Uses LilyPond-mode, flycheck.
