How does this compare to LilyPond, which is Scheme-based with a vaguely TeX-like syntax?

from: https://ccrma.stanford.edu/software/cmn/cmn/cmn.html His comment is telling:

Although I put a lot of effort into making the output legible, it really isn't aimed at producing publishable scores. If you need beautiful output, use Lilypond, Score or Finale.
