Others have made similar comments about Lilypond's behavior regarding keys
and accidentals.  At first I found it a bit odd but quickly grew accustomed
to it.  It *does* make a certain kind of sense.  You want Bb?  You write a
Bb ("bes" by default, I believe it can understand other names).  This is
the way Lily works.  I think it is also why Lily can easily transpose to
other keys.  I was recently working on a set of scale patterns.  I only had
to write it once and then copy/paste the pattern and add a transposition.
This was a HUGE time saver.

Cheers,
