+ PMTeX
+ A Preprocessor for MusicTeX
+ by Don Simons (dsimons@logicon.com)
+
+ INTRODUCTION
+ PMTeX will generate MusicTeX code for multi-staff scores with up to
+ five staves (or voices) per system. Once it makes a .tex file for you,
+ you will probably want or need to change a few things manually. This is
+ because (a) PMTeX only has a small subset of the capabilities of
+ MusicTeX, and (b) PMTeX is not perfect. But it can save a LOT of time
+ with the grunge work involved in setting up notes...enotes groupings,
+ defining beams, justifying lines, and spreading the entire piece evenly
+ over a specified number of systems.
