The file +\verb|mt-x.tds.zip| is a zipped TEXMF +hierarchy; simply download it and unzip in the root folder/directory of whichever TEXMF tree +you decide is most appropriate, likely a ``local'' or ``personal'' one. +This should work with any TDS\footnote{% +\myurl{http://www.tex.ac.uk/cgi-bin/texfaq2html?label=tds}} +compliant TeX distribution, including MikTeX, TeXlive and teTeX, +but you must use an unzipping program that +converts text files to the text-file format of your +platform, such as \verb\unzip -a ...\ on Linux. + + +After unzipping the archive, update the filename database as necessary, +for example, by executing \verb\texhash ~/texmf\ or +clicking the button labelled ``Refresh FNDB" in the MikTeX settings program. + +Documentation for M-Tx is installed under \verb\doc/generic/m-tx\ +in the TEXMF tree. + +\section{Installing \texttt{prepmx}} + +The next step in the installation is to install +the one essential file that can't be installed in a TEXMF tree: the \texttt{prepmx} preprocessor. + + +\subsection{Pre-Compiled Executables} + +On Windows +systems, one can install \texttt{prepmx.exe} +in the \texttt{Windows} sub-directory; this is a pre-compiled +executable and should be copied to any +folder on the PATH of executables. +This might entail creating a suitable folder and adding that folder +to the PATH as follows: +right click on the ``My Computer'' desktop icon, +left click on +\begin{center} +Properties$\rightarrow$Advanced$\rightarrow$Environment Variables +\end{center} +in the ``System Variables'' section, scroll +down to ``path'', select it, click edit, and append the full path name you have selected for the new +folder. Also install the batch script \verb|m-tx.bat| in a folder on the PATH. + +On the MAC OS-X/Intel platform, one can install the \texttt{prepmx} binary +that is in the +\texttt{OSX} sub-directory. Ensure that the file has the execute permission set: +\begin{list}{}{}\item +\verb\chmod +x prepmx\ +\end{list} + +\subsection{Compilation from Source} + +On any platform with basic GNU tools (\texttt{gcc}, \texttt{tar}, \texttt{gunzip}, \texttt{make}), +you should be able to build the \texttt{prepmx} executable as follows: + +\begin{enumerate} +\item Unpack the \texttt{mtx-\mtxVersion.tar.gz} archive: +\begin{list}{}{} +\item \texttt{tar zxvf mtx-\mtxVersion.tar.gz} +\end{list} +and move to the resulting \texttt{mtx-\mtxVersion} directory. +\item Configure: +\begin{list}{}{} +\item \verb\./configure --prefix=$HOME\ +\end{list} +or just +\begin{list}{}{} +\item\verb\./configure \ +\end{list} +if you have super-user privileges. +\item Build: +\begin{list}{}{} +\item \verb\make\ +\end{list} +If this fails, you might want to install \texttt{fpc} (the Free Pascal Compiler\footnote{% +\myurl{http://www.freepascal.org/}}) and +try +\begin{list}{}{} +\item \verb\make -f Makefile.orig\ +\end{list} + +\item Install: +\begin{list}{}{} +\item \verb\make install\ +\end{list} +This step should be executed as root if you need super-user privileges. +\end{enumerate} +You should now have an executable \verb\prepmx\ +in your PATH. + +\section{The Processing Script} + +The Lua script \verb\.../scripts/m-tx/m-tx.lua\ +is simply a convenient wrapper that +by default runs the following processes in order (and then deletes intermediate files): +\begin{itemize}\topsep=0pt\itemsep=0pt +\item \verb\prepmx\ (pre-pre-processing pass) +\item \verb\pmxab\ (pre-processing pass) +\item \verb\etex\ (1st pass) +\item \verb\musixflx\ (2nd pass) +\item \verb\etex\ (3rd pass) +\item \verb\dvips\ (to convert \verb\dvi\ output to Postscript) +\item \verb\ps2pdf\ (to convert \verb\ps\ output to Portable Document Format) +\end{itemize}% +There are many options to vary the default behaviour. + +On a Unix-like system (with \texttt{luatex} installed), you can put a +symbolic link to \texttt{m-tx.lua} in any directory on the executable PATH as follows: +\begin{list}{}{} +\item \verb\ln -s <path to m-tx.lua> m-tx\ +\end{list} +On Windows, install +the batch script +\begin{list}{}{} +\item \verb|Windows\m-tx.bat| +\end{list} +to a folder +on the executable PATH. + +Documentation for the \verb\m-tx\ script is in the +\verb\doc/generic/m-tx/scripts\ directory. + + +\section{Discussion} + +Other pre-processor packages, additional documentation, additional +add-on packages, and many examples of M-Tx and MusiXTeX typesetting may be found +at the Werner Icking Music Archive\footnote{% +\myurl{http://icking-music-archive.org}}. +Support for users of MusiXTeX and related software may be obtained via +the MusiXTeX mail list\footnote{% +\myurl{http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music}}. +M-Tx may be freely copied, duplicated and used in conformance to the +GNU General Public License (Version 2, 1991, see included file \verb\gpl.txt\). + +\end{document} diff --git a/Master/texmf-dist/scripts/m-tx/Windows/m-tx.bat b/Master/texmf-dist/scripts/m-tx/Windows/m-tx.bat deleted file mode 100755 index 0faf4136651..00000000000 --- a/Master/texmf-dist/scripts/m-tx/Windows/m-tx.bat +++ /dev/null @@ -1,6 +0,0 @@ -:: wrapper script to call m-tx.lua
