+LilyPond uses the code(TeX) package as its rendering engine. code(TeX)
+represents the state-of-the-art in computer typesetting. It is used to
+generate documentation, article, and book quality output. It is an
+assume tool to have in your toolbox.
+
+LilyPond uses a code(Python) script named code(ly2dvi) to render a
+professional quality music score. code(Python) is an interpreted,
+interactive, object-oriented programming language. It is often
+compared to code(Tcl), code(Perl), code(Scheme) or code(Java).
