Suggest keywords and characterizations for musixtex

I am glad to receive suggested keywords and characterizations for this package. I am especially glad if you are the package author but I'd take helpful advice from anyone (I reserve the right to edit or disregard anything).

Note: this form is for changes to the keywords and characterizations for this package, and anything else is invalid. Other information about the package — such as its description — I am not allowed to change; you must write ctan at dante.de. (I have a separate form for author display name and collate name because those may apply across multiple packages.)

Fill out the fields below and then move to the bottom of the page to click Submit.

Sophisticated music typesetting

MusiXTeX provides a set of macros, based on the earlier MusicTeX, for typesetting music with TeX. To produce optimal spacing, MusixTeX is a three-pass system: etex, musixflx, and etex again. (Musixflx is a lua script that is provided in the bundle.) The three-pass process, optionally followed by processing for printed output, is automated by the musixtex wrapper script. The package uses its own specialised fonts, which must be available on the system for musixtex to run. This version of MusixTeX builds upon work by Andreas Egler, whose own version is no longer being developed. The MusiXTeX macros are universally acknowledged to be challenging to use directly: the pmx preprocessor compiles a simpler input language to MusixTeX macros..

About you

The name and email fields are in color because they are required so that I can write you with any questions. You can make a remark about the suggested change (particularly if you are not the author) but it must be plain text or the system will silently drop your submission as spam.

Choose a list of keywords

Click to leave a checkmark next to all the keywords that apply. To omit a keyword, click again.

Choose a primary characterization

Pick the best description of the main job that this package does. Use the finest-grained characterization that applies. For instance, if the package is a publisher style that applies to books then select Document types > Books > Publisher styles, not Document types > Books or Document types.

Choose secondary characterizations

Many package cross categories. Pick the best description of the other jobs that this package does.

As with the primary characterization, use here the finest-grained characterization that applies. For instance, Fonts > Text body fonts, would help more people find a package than Fonts alone, because a category like the latter one would fill up quickly if we don't go for fine-grained.
