Although you can't edit or view them properly in Rosegarden, you can use
Rosegarden to prepare staffs that are then exported as multivoice staffs for
Lilypond to process. The results can be very good if you get lucky, or can
need quite a lot of tweaking if you don't. But Rosegarden's Lilypond output
is far better than it used to be, thanks to lots of good work from Heikki
Johannes Junes.
