Rachmat Sukendro asked about MusiXTex/PMX for Mac. Eric Petersen takes
care of compiling PMX for Mac. He posted this not long ago:

As for MusiXTeX; it is not a binary. It is a macro package that runs under
TeX. If you don't have a TeX installation you will need to get one. OzTeX
is good and very Mac-like (I have used it and it works quite well). Some
like CMacTeX which is a bit more modular and Unix-like. You will need
musixflx compiled for the Mac. This is a necessary component for MusiXTeX.
I think Eric covers that, too.
As for MusiXTeX, Daniel Taupin (author of MusiXTeX) recently wrote:

So, this is where you get MusiXTeX. The musixflx program is provided for
PCs but as I mentioned you will need to download the Mac version of it (it
is not very big) or compile the source if you have the tools.
If you don't know about TeX then you are in for a bit of a learning curve.
Hope this helps,
