LilyPond is very well done, it has many happy users, just it is not a visually appealing application, but a typesetting engine based in a language. This language is easier to learn than most of the ones you already know. Very young pupils of me with no (zero) programming background use it, some of them better than myself. Maybe it is not intended exactly to "compose" in the first place, but if you are a composer and want to show your scores neat enough as to amaze others, give LilyPond a try. -- Francisco Vila.
