Since it's a Sibelius plugin, that means those of us who mostly use
Linux are out of luck.
I do run into Sibelius files I'd like to convert from time to time,
but they're on the web at places like CPDL and the Werner Icking
site. So I couldn't ask the generous people who put them up to
install a test piece of software and convert them for me.
Isn't it possible to write a standalone program that could be run by
the person who wants the lilypond, and not by the person who wrote the
sibelius?
Would you like me to send you some test data?

I mostly take the barlines out anyway, and tuplets aren't at all
common in the music I do. But lyrics would be nice.
