The opposite approach would be to set up a "score" containing just a
single note (or other symbol) and remove all lines, bars, and clef, so
that only the note itself remains visible. Example:
8<--------------------------------------------------------------------
\documentclass[12pt,twoside]{article}
\usepackage{musixtex}
\makeatletter
\def\typenote#1{%
\vbox{%
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\smallmusicsize
\nostartrule
\setlines10
\setclefsymbol1\empty
\staffbotmarg-2\Internote
\stafftopmarg0pt
\afterruleskip0pt
\startextract
\znotes#1\en
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
\zendextract}}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
First line of paragraph \\
Abc \typenote{\qa g}
def \typenote{\ca g}\kern7pt
ghi \typenote{\ds}
jkl \typenote{\qp}
mno\\
Last line of paragraph
\end{document}
8<--------------------------------------------------------------------
That's definitely not perfect, but at least it relieves you of
constructing a note from its graphical elements (head, stem, flag)
yourself.
Best regards,
