Notation Software

Lilypond, which is
what Serpent Publications currently uses.
ABC notation, which
we used when we got started, and which a lot of people find
easier than lilypond to install and use.
Musescore, which is a
free GUI-based notation program, which interfaces very well with
a lot of other notation programs.
