TeX +is a language designed for typesetting technical documents, +and is available for most platforms. Musi[c|x]TeX +were written by Daniel Taupin, who is now deceased. They are +available via anonymous ftp at CTAN sites and the Werner Icking +Music Archive (WIMA). See WIMA for installation instructions. + +Version 3.02 of bagpipe.tex works with MusicTeX version 5.20 and +MusixTeX version T.89. Since it redefines a few Musi(c|x)TeX +macros, it may not work with later versions without modification. +It definitely does not work with versions of MusicTeX earlier than +4.7. + +MusixTeX differs from MusicTeX in that it relies on a three pass +system to adjust the spacing instead of glue (stretchable space). +MusixTeX is also the version under active development and has +many features which MusicTeX does not. Most of these are +irrelevant for bagpipe music. + +In this distribution: + +bagpipe.tex : the macro package. +bagpipe.txt : same as above with a common extension +bagpipe.ini : for generating a bagpipe format +bagpipex.ini : for generating a bagpipex format +bagdoc.tex : user's guide. + +quickref.tex : a reference 'card'. + +Green.tex } +GreenTwo.tex } : sample tunes +Bonnets.tex } : (note that in bagpipe music, two sharps are +Washer.tex } : understood and the key signature is usually omitted as +BlackDonald.tex } : in these samples) + +Notes: *.tex, *.ini, and *.mf are ascii. +You may have to modify some settings to get your browser to +download these files. The sample tunes and quickref in this +distribution are set up to use MusixTeX. + +License is granted to distribute and use this product according +to the LaTeX Project Public License (lppl1.3).
