Quick translation of the Makefile (I haven't tested it) > make dvitarget The effect of this statement is to cause the next invocation of make to read the file make-dvi instead of make-pdf (which is the default) > make config This effectively copies prepmx to the current directory (so not necessary if you have prepmx in your PATH if building manually) > make This will build mtx.dvi using the following sequences which I translate: touch mtxdoc.mx1 ==> copy nul mtxdoc.mx1 rm *.mx? ==> del *.mx? - $(latex) mtxdoc ==> latex mtxdoc musixflx mtxdoc makeindex mtxdoc - $(latex) mtxdoc ==> latex mtxdoc - $(latex) mtxindex ==> latex mtxindex rm ... ==> del ... However, as a prerequisite, it requires the examples to build which you should be able to do by saying: (newlines are important) for %i in (*.mta) do ( if not exist %~ni.mtb ( for %j in (%~ni*.mtb) do copy %i %~nj.mtx copy %~nj.mtx + %j prepmx %~nj pmxab %~nj del %~nj.pml %~nj.pmx pmxaerr.dat ) ) else ( copy %i %~ni.mtx copy %~ni.mtx + %~ni.mxb prepmx %~ni pmxab %~ni del %~ni.pml %~ni.pmx pmxaerr.dat ) ) (it's possible that actually you should remove the prepmx, pmxab and del commands and put them in a separate loop over *.mtx after running the first bit but I haven't checked whether there are additional .mtx files in the zip...)
