It is.
But I use LyX, which simplifies almost every LaTeX operation, it only makes
difficoult - if not impossible - to use third-party multi-pass systems as
lilypondbook is. Anyway LyX has an excellent "insert-Lilypond" tool for
inserting pieces of music. It is connected with lilypond: it refers sto the
.ly files and shows the eps result in the main screen, and with a click you
can modify the .ly files in your favourite editor. When a .ly file is
changed LyX "feels" it and start Lilypond again to render it correctly to
screen or in final pdf output. This environment is perfect to show "floats"
and other middle-size (not more than 1 page) examples. But it works also
with in-line small examples: only it would be much better if lilypond itself
cropped the unused whitespace up and above.
