Lilypond :-)

I was able to hack it (well, tweak some parameters in a user-space function) to 
draw a 10-string tablature, and *thicken* the heaviest (nearly central) string, 
which, aside from (IMHO) looking amazingly cool, makes the tab much more 
readable, since the eye can quickly identify the strings, which then relate to 
the sense of touch. (I still read the tab not the score, when playing ;-) )

BTW It's the other way around: I played from the music (well, memorized it first).

Writing music in vim seems pretty natural, if you like programming languages 
(which I do) :-)
