Re: LilyPond to Finale :-(

[Urs Liska]

Well, that's about what I expected but definitely don't want to read :-(

Are there any tools around to convert LilyPond scores to any other 
format at all?
Through one of the editing tools?

Best
Urs

P.S.
If found http://www.recordare.com/default.asp that offers (commercial) 
file translation service including LilyPond files (if anybody is 
interested).
I'll see what this should cost. Probably I won't go for this solution...
