I am looking for an method of notating single voice music (lead
sheets) using a computer keyboard as the method of entry.  I know
enough about music theory and programming, but nothing about desktop
music publishing.  Any references to well-known works on this topic
would be greatly appreeciated.

My object is to write a program which translates from this easy to
type notation into the internal format of MuTeX.  MuTeX is a free set
of TeX language programs and fonts for typesetting single-staff music
with one or two voices.

MuTeX is availabe via anonymous ftp from:
cs.ubc.ca 128.189.97.5 in /pub/src/MuTeX
or stolaf.edu 130.71.128.1 in /pub"

Thanks!
