I thought you said you knew python... or maybe that was your
brother? ... and maybe it was perl, not python?
Still, download the lsr-docs, and try running the file... oh wait,
you're on windows: the only OS that doesn't include python by
default. Python is a good thing to have installed, but that might
be too much bother for this.

lilypond -dsafe foo.ly
the file will be safe or unsafe. It comes down to what kinds of

It's possible to hide a lot of nasty stuff in scheme. Having
a short list of things you need to look at carefully will make it
much easier. But since John's doing this, never mind.
