This is the MusiXTeX pre-processor package mpp.
  To make effective use of this package you will
need to have the typesetting package TeX as well 
as the additional macro package MusiXTeX available.

MusixTeX is available via anonymous ftp from
official CTAN sites such as ftp.dante.de and
and ftp.tex.ac.uk, 
in the directory pub/tex/macros/musixtex.

The unix platform

* remove the executable mpp.exe for 8088 machines:
  rm mpp.exe

* remove all MSDOS batch files:
  rm *.bat
    
* configure for unix platform:
  sh < configure unix
    or, using g++ (version > 2.5.x)
  sh < configure gnu

* make#1 the executable mpp:
  make

* install mpp in the parent (MusiXTeX) directory:
  make INSTALLDIR=.. install
    or in directory PATH:
  make INSTALLDIR=PATH install

note: make sure the "note.ini" and "script.ini" files 
      reside in the same directory as the executable.

 
The MSDOS platform

The executable mpp.exe is already compiled for
8088 machines.
  If for any reason you must compile the executable
yourself:

* copy the file makefile.dos to makefile:
  copy makefile.dos makefile
    
* make#1#2 the executable mpp.exe:
  make
 
* install mpp in the parent (MusiXTeX) directory:
  make INSTALLDIR=.. install
    or in directory PATH:
  make INSTALLDIR=PATH install

note: make sure the "note.ini" and "script.ini" files 
      reside in the same directory as the executable.


------
#1 if "make" complains, please use gnu make
   (or replace Makefile: 553: "include $(NAME).dep" by 
   a physical include of of "mpp.dep")
#2 makefile(.dos) assumes to find Borland TurboC++ as /tc/bin/tcc, and
   Turbo link as /tc/bin/tlink.
   you best use GNU make for MSDOS.
