I am preparing to outfit a computer for songwriting in Linux.
I will be using the command line notation options, of which there are
rather a few from Lillypond to muscript.
You might want to look at MUP for notation

I find it much easier than lilypond, but others disagree :) I also find it
has been output.
As part of the writing process (as well as performance, but that isn't your
question) I also use my MMA software to generate MIDI:

Quite often I will generate MIDI from MUP and import that into MMA to check
note conflicts and just to make sure things "sound" like I think they
should.
Hope this helps,
