NAME

musixtex - automates the three-pass TeX compilation of MusiXTeX

SYNOPSIS

musixtex file.tex [TeX options]

DESCRIPTION

The script musixtex was written by Anthony Fok <foka@debian.org> to compile your MusiXTeX source music score file (*.tex):

MusiXTeX is a three-pass system. It uses an external program called musixflex to calculate the spacing of the notes. To compile your MusiXTeX jobname.tex file, you may use:

musixtex jobname.tex
The script calls TeX ==> musixflex ==> TeX on jobname.tex to save your time to do it manually.

If you prefer to do it manually, try:

tex jobname.tex ; musixflx jobname ; tex jobname.tex

For LaTeX MusiXTeX files, use the following instead:

latex jobname.tex; musixflx jobname; latex jobname.tex
