This package adds the PostScript slurs, ties and crescendos into
MusiXTeX. It is possible to use it in almost the same way as the
original bitmapped slur simply saying "\input musixps" at the beginning
of your source file. The resulting dvi file should be then converted
into PostScript by dvips (and then to PDF using ps2pdf, ghostscript or
Adobe Distiller, if necessary).

Please note that the slurs won't appear in any other dvi previewer, nor when
you use pdftex to produce the PDF file directly.

The mxsk font is used for "half ties" - short breaked ties at the
beginning of the line. If you use \nohalfties, you do not need to
install this font. The musixps.tex should be placed anywhere TeX can
find it, prefferably into the musixtex directory. Do not include it into
your TeX format file! The psslurs.pro should be placed somewhere dvips
can find it.

musixps.tex is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it
under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the
Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your
option) any later version.
