./print/tex-musixtex, TeX macros for sophisticated music typesetting

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ] [ Add to tracker ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.37, Package name: tex-musixtex-1.37, Maintainer: dgriffi

MusiXTeX provides a set of macros, based on the earlier
MusicTeX, for typesetting music with TeX. To produce optimal
spacing, MusiXTeX is a three-pass system: etex, musixflx, and
etex again. (Musixflx is a lua script that is provided in the
bundle.) The three-pass process, optionally followed by
processing for printed output, is automated by the musixtex
wrapper script. The package uses its own specialised fonts,
which must be available on the system for musixtex to run. This
version of MusiXTeX builds upon work by Andreas Egler, whose
own version is no longer being developed. The MusiXTeX macros
are universally acknowledged to be challenging to use directly:
the pmx preprocessor compiles a simpler input language to
MusiXTeX macros..

Added support for use of a "handwriting" font for textual elements of a
score, as is traditionally used for jazz scores.

1.34
This release includes a new extension library musixftab.tex which
supports traditional French tablature using script letters rather than
numerals to specify notes.

The \tabfnt definitions in musixtex.tex have been revised
to allow re-definition in musixftab.tex. A mini-font file
frenchtab.pfb and associated support files are included.
