+<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
+
+<B>M-Tx</B>
+
+is an easy to use preprocessor language for the
+<B>PMX</B>
+
+music typesetting program, aimed at people who are not experts. For an
+easy example, have a look at the following example:
+<P>
+<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;c2+&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e4&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;g&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;|&nbsp;b4d-&nbsp;&nbsp;c1&nbsp;d&nbsp;c2&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;|
+<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;c8&nbsp;g+&nbsp;e&nbsp;g&nbsp;c-&nbsp;g+&nbsp;e&nbsp;g&nbsp;|&nbsp;d&nbsp;g&nbsp;f&nbsp;g&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;c-&nbsp;g+&nbsp;e&nbsp;g&nbsp;|
+<P>
+For syntax reference, please look at the M-Tx manual written by Dirk
+Laurie, the creator of the M-Tx language and the author of prepmx, its
+command line utility.
+<P>
+<B>prepmx</B>
+
+processes the file
+<I>jobname</I>.mtx
+
+to generate
+<I>jobname</I>.pmx.
+
+You can then process this file using the `pmx' command.
+<B>PMX</B>
+
+is a preprocessor for MusiXTeX.
+<P>
+<I>outdir/</I>
+
+is the directory where `pmx' will put the final .tex file. Note that the
+trailing slash is mandatory. You can provide a
+<I>stylefile</I>
+
+for M-Tx. If omitted, the file `mtxstyle.txt' in the current
+directory is used, if there is one.
+<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
+<H2>OPTIONS</H2>
+
+Options can also be specified in a `Options:' line in the preamble,
+which takes precedence over the command line.

+<H2>EXIT STATUS</H2>
+
+If no error was found,
+<B>prepmx</B>
+
+exits with return code 0. In case of an error, the line number of the
+processed line is returned. This may not always be the line containing
+the actual error. A return status of 10000 means that the input file was
+empty or could not be opened.
