Dear fellow mutex subscribers.

Since I started experimenting with pmx and mtx I have been doing most of
my editing within the win32 MiKTeX port of TeX. With MiKTeX version 1.11
recently released I want to recommend it to those of you doing music
typesetting on win32 machines.

Among the powerfull features of MiKTeX is the dvi previewer YAP which
has been remarkably improved through the last releases. With YAP you
have got a very powerfull TeX previewing and printing tool.

Another nice feature of MiKTeX was introduced with the beta release of
1.11. During the  installation - performed through a standard win32
install wizzard interface - your are offered to set up a local texmf
tree besides the core texmf tree. In the local texmf you may install
your MusiXTeX etc. stuff once and for all without having to redo this
when you upgrade MiKTeX later. I did so when I installed the 1.11 beta
release and was able to continue my mtx editing immediately after having
upgraded to the final version.

That was all :-)
