I tried using lilypond ( http://www.lilypond.org/ ) for typesetting of sheet music.
While the output looks nice, the input language IMHO is quite horrible,
I use musescore. Its got 3 modes on entry a. clickety-click -- ie mouse b. keyboard shortcuts c. midi keyboard For bulk entry direct entry from a midi keyboard is best http://musescore.org/en/handbook/note-entry [Since I am not much of a musician, I usually hover between a and b] If after that you want the lilypond toolchain, it will export to lilypond and then use your favorite text editor. [Not sure of the quality of export]
