Basically, Andreas Egler's version of MusiXTeX. He disagreed
(vehemently, I thing) with Daniel Taupin on the development of MusiXTeX.

You can find it in ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/incoming/opustex/atwork/opus084.tgz
(or ../opus084.zip). That version, of February 4, 1998 seems to be the
latest version; it certainly has been in "incoming" for a while!
I have no idea how it compares with the latest version of MusixTeX
(v. T97, as of July 8th this year).
OpusTeX seems to be freely downloadable, but apparently
it is not "DFSG-free", i.e. not free according to
the Debian Free Software Guidelines.
