Here's some such unsolicited praise, which probably could be condensed
and worded better, but-- ;-)
As a former Finale user, I was originally daunted by LilyPond's very
different approach, where the music notation exists in a plain-text
file that the user can create and edit him or herself. But after mere
hours of learning how to enter music by typing in a text file, and
seeing how brilliantly LilyPond interprets that text to produce a
beautiful score, I came to prefer the technique to the often
cumbersome, slow process of music notation using a full-blown GUI
application like Finale, Sibelius or Igor.
In addition, with LilyPond it feels more like one is actually writing
the music quickly and spontaneously, leaving the laborious task of
score engraving to LilyPond's capable "hands."
