I have lot of sheet music for practicing

simple way to put it into computer so that I can play it.
Something that makes it easy to write music, could be just text (like
http://abc.sourceforge.net/) or regular music notation or tabs or...
whatever is optimized for writing down music...
Just to be clear - I am not looking for a way to record the music, I want
to write it down in some kind of notation.
playback is not a focus, if it produces midi or audio file and the rhythm
is correct I'm happy.

(and yes, looking for linux solution)
I like Lilypond, which is text-based (and
makes beautiful notation),
but if you want something more point-n-clickl, I recommend Rosegarden
or Denemo.
I second Lilypond the output is just so beautiful!
What I usually do (as I like to se a score) is use Rosegarden, export to
Lilypond and do some "hand" tweaks to the Lilypond source.

PS: I did these with the above mentioned method:
(maybe not the best
examples, but thefact they need refinement is not because of the method
though but because of my lack of time going back to them :)
