Can you give examples of what you don't like about Emacs? I've
been happy with it for 20 years. I only use it for editing.
The only feature I have trouble with are what "---->" and "["
and "]" do with alignment. I have a work-around for "--->"
I also use make and alt-tab.

I use the Linux Emacs editor (which has a lilypond mode), and
there
might be something there, but I was just after a little advice
- I
have used Frescobaldi, but for me Emacs is faster and more
efficient.
Emacs' LilyPond-mode is an abomination in desperate need of
maintenance
or possibly rewriting from scratch. There is no reason to use it
unless
you are one of those people who use Emacs for everything (in
contrast,
the mail/news client I am writing this in would be a reason to
switch to
Emacs rather than vice versa. As are the LaTeX modes). However,
it
probably has the only useable MIDI pitch recognition for
polyphonic
entry like those of accordions.
If I needed to batch-convert some input regarding
relative/absolute or
transpose, I'd likely start up Frescobaldi. Never mind that it
isn't
the one editor to bring them all and in the darkness bind them.
