Better answer -- My age is 75.  I've been using Lilypond for ca 5 years,
without an editor (other than VI), and entirely for original compositions.
My .ly files usually exist initially as output from the J prog. language.

A single movement may well have 2 final .ly files -- one optimized for
the score, the other optimized for MIDI output (in turn further edited
via Rosegarden).
