The best editor environment for lilypond-files of the ones I've come across so far (no offense, jEdit... :-), is emacs with the lilypond-quick-insert-mode, customized and tweaked to my liking and with interaction with mymidikbd: I can "touch-type" gkalsdasndofh and out comes r4 c8 d e c d8. e16 f1 - with sounding output for immediate control. Only problem: I don't like emacs. Question, then: is there a way to accomplish the same in vim...? I'm mainly thinking of two things: - has anyone done the work of fitting the same kind of macros in vim? (i.e.: any rhythmic value is stored in memory and applies by default to the next input; keys mappable to pitches, lengths, extras such as octave up/down, dots, etc.; spaces are added automatically; etc.). I imagine this part would be fairly easy: the mappings are the easy part, and I suppose the rest can be arranged, somehow. - direct midi playback. This for me is the dealbreaker. Not that it sounds good or anything... but it speeds up input tremendously. so I guess the question boils down to this: does anyone know how I can integrate mymidikbd or some other midi app in a vim session?
