- musixlyr -- a MusiXTeX Extension Package for Lyrics Handling
- Version 2.0c
-
- (C) Rainer Dunker 1996-2001
-
-
-musixlyr is a set of TeX macros to be used with Taupin MusiXTeX
-(version T.52 or later) for typesetting vocal music. Its purpose is
-to compensate two drawbacks of MusiXTeX's lyrics handling:
-
- o Typesetting lyrics with the ``native'' MusiXTeX commands \zcharnote,
- \zsong etc. tends to be quite inefficient, particularly if the
- lyrics have to be changed or corrected. The idea underlying
- musixlyr is to separate lyrics coding from music coding and let TeX
- weave them together with as little manual interference as
- possible. As a result you can enter and edit lyrics (nearly) as
- easily as normal text.
-
- o MusiXTeX has no built-in mechanism for centering hyphens between
- syllables and for handling hyphenation at long melismas. This is
- implemented in musixlyr following the example of engraved music.
-
-
-New in version 2.0:
-
- o Support for lyrics on multi-staff instruments
-
- o Melisma declaration as part of the lyrics definition,
- i.e. within \setlyrics
-
- o Improved scheme for vertical lyrics positioning
-
- o Using PMX: Automatic detection of upper/lower voice context in
- a two-voice staff; explicitly addressing lyrics commands to
- auxiliary lyrics with \auxlyr is no longer required
-
- o Context-dependent lyrics settings that do not need to be
- adressed to absolute instrument/staff numbers, making lyrics
- assignment robust against PMX part extraction
-
- o No more TeX register allocations per verse
- (i.e. musixlyr uses only a small, fixed number of registers)
-
- o Facility for posting "extra" lyrics anywhere on a staff,
- even where no notes are present at all
-
- o Slightly more robust processing of undefined verses
-
-
-See the included file mxlyrdoc.dvi about how to make use of musixlyr.
-This DVI file has been created using MusiXTeX T.103. If you have
-another version installed, the music examples of the manual may be
-corrupted due to font incompatibilities. Nevertheless, the rest of
-the manual will remain readable so that you will be able to install
-musixlyr and recompile the mxlyrdoc.tex file in order to get
-everything right.
-
-All kinds of comments, suggestions, and bug reports are welcome!
