Re: Subject:,"Harvesting" comments from music sources

There seems to be some conceptual overlap here with "literate programming" tools such as WEB (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WEB).

Whether there's enough overlap to be useful ... that I must leave you to decide.

Hi list,

any ideas/experience on parsing lilypond input files for special comments and produce some documentation from it?

I would love to write editorial comments directly in the lilypond source.
Some script could then read these from the source and produce html or OpenDocumentText or some latex input file.

What could be a practical approach or language for this?
Are there solutions to build upon?

Best
Urs
