Hi Larry, The documentation for LilyPond is extremely detailed and quite a lot of info can be found in it...make sure you head over and check out the Learning / Notation manuals so you can get up to speed. :) The tempo can be set easily by using the Tempo command, for example: \tempo "Andante" or: \tempo 4. = 96 or even: \tempo "Presto" 4 = 120 } See this link for more information --> http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/learning/simple-notation#tempo-marks Also, make sure you let us know what version of LilyPond you are using, often times that can make a difference with the syntax and we can help you better. Welcome to LilyPond!
