'''LilyPond''' is an open-source program to produce sheet music, using a text-based input format to supply music to be printed.

Mediawiki's Score extension allows the embedding of music, input using LilyPond notation, in wikis.

The first line of a file should be a version statement like this:
:\version "2.16.2"
The version number will vary by which LilyPond version the file is intended for.
