When working extensively with lyp or lilypond, an interactive mode might be beneficial. It cuts down on typing, and it also performs faster.

$ lyp
lyp> easy.ly
GNU LilyPond 2.19.52
Processing `/tmp/lyp/wrappers/easy.ly'
Parsing...
Interpreting music...
Preprocessing graphical objects...
Finding the ideal number of pages...
Fitting music on 1 page...
Drawing systems...
Layout output to `/var/folders/tz/jxcv5s0j091dfpxl3qbvpnf40000gn/T//lilypond-DjaSdE'...
Converting to `easy.pdf'...
Deleting `/var/folders/tz/jxcv5s0j091dfpxl3qbvpnf40000gn/T//lilypond-DjaSdE'...
Success: compilation successfully completed
lyp> pwd
/Users/sharon
lyp> watch scores/bwv35 # watches files in background
lyp> unwatch # stops watching

So for interactive mode to be useful a bunch of commands might be needed, but at least some of those might be useful also when invoking lyp non-interactively, for example the watch command.
