I haven't got around to writing a HOWTO yet, but the M-Tx user's
manual is an example of what you seem to need. It is part of the
M-Tx package which can be downloaded by following the appropriate
links on http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk
All the files I refer to should be in that package.
It operates as follows:
1. All music examples are prepared independently using PMX.
2. When the examples are all fully debugged, a script (the Unix
version is called tex2ex.sh) is used to strip off certain
parts that are only appropriate for stand-alone scores.
3. The LaTeX file contains \usepackage{mtxdoc} (which requires
mtxdoc.sty).
4. The music examples are input like this
\begin{mus}
\input mozart.ex
\end{mus}
using the mus environment defined in mtxdoc.sty. Perhaps
some horizontal spacing adjustments like \hskip or enclosing
everything inside an \mbox inside \begin{center}...\end{center}
might be needed.
If you are used to writing your own MusiXTeX directly, maybe
the hints you can pick up from these examples are enough.
