I'd say installing MiKTeX is like installing most other programs in Windows, run the installer and click Next a number of times. In the choice between small, medium or large (don't remember which terminology they use), the small dsitribution should be enough for using MiKTeX but if you ever want to try LaTeX for some other document typesetting, I'd recommend the medium size. > > - and if i want to implement the "parser" to parse the > > musixtex file. If you want a music format that you could parse and use for other purposes, don't use MusixTeX. The file format for the preprocessor PMX is much easier to parse (even though it's not perfectly designed for parsing with lex/yacc). Even if you just want to write or auto- generate the input files, I recommend using PMX instead of raw MusixTeX since it takes care of many low level details. /Mats _______________________________________________ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
