Converting .nwc files to .ly (on Ubuntu)

I am a linux user (Ubuntu 10.10) & use NWC under wine. It works fine, but I would like to be able to be able to convert from NWC to Lilypond as I use that natively. I have a friend who has an immense resource of Orthodox Music that is in NWC format, and I would like to convert it to Lilypond for ease of conversion to pdf, and so I can change things around if I need to as I have learned Lilypond fairly well now. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I think this question has already been answered on the LilyPond user mailing list, and I still haven't got around to upgrading my membership here to allow me to post URLs.  However, a Google for lilypond nwctxt will lead you directly to my web site with my NWC to LilyPond converter.  You can also find a number of references to it on this site by searching for LilyPond.  Good luck.
