+This is M-Tx (Music-from-TeXt), version 0.60d (2013-12-24).
+
+M-Tx is a preprocessor for PMX that facilitates inputting lyrics. It
+builds the PMX input file based on a language very similar to PMX. M-Tx
+includes most of PMX's functionality, but it also permits in-line PMX
+commands to give access to virtually all of PMX.
+
+The author of M-Tx is Dirk Laurie (dpl@sun.ac.za).
+
+To install (on TDS-compliant TeX systems):
+
+ + unzip tex-archive/install/m-tx.tds.zip at the root of a texmf tree and,
+ if necessary, update the filename database; e.g., texhash texmf.
+ Documentation for M-Tx is installed under doc/generic/tmx. You must use
+ an unzipping program that converts text files to the text-file format of
+ your platform, such as "unzip -a ... " on Linux.
+
+ + *either* copy the executables appropriate for your
+ platform (Windows, OSX) to a folder on the executable PATH
+ and ensure it has execute permission
+
+ + *or* on any Unix-like system with gcc and standard development tools
+ installed: unpack mtx-0.60d.tar.gz (anywhere), move to the resulting
+ mtx-0.60d directory, and do
+
+ ./configure [--prefix=$HOME]
+ make (or make -f Makefile.orig if you have fpc installed)
+ make install (as root, if necessary)
+
+ Then install a symbolic link m-tx in any directory on the executable
+ PATH to scripts/m-tx/m-tx.lua
+
+Documentation for M-Tx and the wrapper script is installed under
+
+doc/generic/m-tx
+
+Many examples of M-Tx and MusiXTeX typesetting may be found at the Werner
+Icking Music Archive at

+Support for users of MusiXTeX and related software may be obtained via
+the MusiXTeX mail list at
