Automatic production of simple practice scores

[Carl Smith]

Hi all

This is my first post to the list, so I'd like to say thanks
for your work. LilyPond looks awesome.

I have a client who needs a little program writing, and I
wanted to run it by you guys first. This is what he asked
me for...

"""
I am looking for a program that can automatically
generate sets of notes and rhythms and basic musical
pieces for rhythm and sightreading exercises. I have
noticed various other sites use this 'automation'.

I'm not much of a musician, so I was wondering if anyone
could give me some pointers. The job is through
peopleperhour.com and pays £75 before fees of %15. I'm
not concerned about the money, it's peanuts, but I thought
the job was interesting, so I said I'd look into it for him.

I'm happy to write the code, or work with someone here
and share or donate the cash. Whatever. It just looks like
it'd be interesting to hack on, and I'm free for a couple of
days, so it'd be a chance to learn about something new.

Thanks again

Carl
