Lilypad looks both interesting and frightening. And beyond the scope of what I'm trying to accomplish; while I'd probably be willing to tackle any one or two songs with it, I'm not willing to translate dozens-to-hundreds of pages. (This will be a long & difficult enough conversion project--10 books of over 400 pages each, with sometimes whacked formatting--without adding musical conversion to it.)
Especially since I'd need a crash course in *reading* musical notation first; I'm okay with basics, but some of these are fairly complicated.
