The normal course of LilyPond is typesetting music.  You can supplant a
different init file if you want to have the Scheme engine do something
different with the parsed expressions than what you actually wrote in
the file.

There are a number of hooks getting called when parsing particular parts
of the input file.  Take a look at lily/parser.yy to figure them out.

The parsed expressions are not really the whole story.

Scheme is not actually Lisp.
