I use abc notation [1]. It is lean, has everything I need composition
wise and it is text based. Relevant Debian packages:
abcm2ps - to typeset your music
abcmidi - to convert abc files to midi
Useful resources:
- a page with abc examples [2]
- abc-users mailing list [3]
- more complex example: a transcription of Beethoven's Symphony
No. 7 in abc notation [4]
