LilyKDE

Version: 0.6.5 LilyKDE is a project to make working with the LilyPond music typesetter within KDE very easy.

If you are a LilyPond user and you have KDE, then LilyKDE is for you. The main part of LilyKDE is a plugin for Kate.

Run LilyPond on the current document with a keystroke.
Show an embedded PDF preview. When you click on a note or another object, Kate jumps to the correct document and cursor position.
Display LilyPond's messages in a log view. Error messages are also clickable.
New Score Wizard, allowing you to quickly set up a new LilyPond document. It can handle many instruments, vocal staffs, lyrics, figured bass, chordnames, tablature staffs, titles and headers and much more.
Direct MIDI input from a MIDI-keyboard or even your computer keyboard. This powerful function uses Rumor for the actual work, but it can automatically set the key and time signature according to the current document. You can adjust the metronome speed very easy by clicking on a "Tap" button. Many other settings are available.
After LilyPond has run you can open, email or print PDF documents and play MIDI files with a mouseclick from within Kate.
Automatic hyphenation of Lyric texts using dictionaries from e.g. OpenOffice.org or Scribus.
MIME type information and an icon for LilyPond files.
A textedit:// service to make the clickable links work anywhere in KDE.
A Konqueror servicemenu and helper app to run LilyPond from within Konqueror on selected files.
Katepart syntax highlighting for LilyPond documents (also part of KDE).
