Bob Tennent submitted the musixtnt package. Version number: 2015-02-18 License type: gpl2 Summary description: A MusiXTeX extension library that enables transformations of the effect of notes commands Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This archive contains a MusiXTeX extension library musixtnt and C source code, binaries for Windows (32 bit and 64 bit) and MacOSX, and documentation for two programs: fixmsxpart and msxlint. musixtnt.tex provides a macro TransformNotes that enables transformations of the effect of notes commands such as otes. In general, the effect of TransformNotes{input}{output} is that notes commands in the source will expect their arguments to match the input pattern, but the notes will be typeset according to the output pattern. An example is extracting single-instrument parts from a multi-instrument score. fixmsxpart corrects note spacing in a single-part MusiXTeX source (possibly derived from a multi-instrument score and as a result having irregular note spacing). msxlint detects incorrectly formatted notes lines in a MusiXTeX source file. This should be used before using TransformNotes. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/musixtnt More information is at http://www.ctan.org/pkg/musixtnt We are supported by the TeX Users Group http://www.tug.org .
