Hi,
You can always make a special tie from a slur:
In an example in musicdoc114.pdf, page 41 is '\iSlur npvh' and '\tSlur npvhca' used, in fact
\iSlur0{'b}{-.5}3  and \tSlur0{'b}{.5}{-1}{.3}0 for a very flat tie

Hi Don,

(I have now a different e-mail alias, please repost this message)

If you need to change the curvature of a tie, you can fiddle with the
\pstiehgt, \pstiemaxhgt and \pstieangul parameters. The defaults are
defined at the beginning of musixps.tex. If you want to change these
parameters for an individual tie, do so before tie termination command,
there is not an easy way to create "\tftie" macro. I did not think it is
wise to have different shapes of ties within one piece, although it is
of course possible to define a different "house style" for all ties.

Hope this helps,

Stanislav.

Too bad no one has responded with a solution. Obviously, a search in
musixps.tex for tftie comes up empty, so I guess I lied when I wrote that
in
musixdoc. I'd bet you could somehow change the curvature with some tex
commands that alter the parameters, but that's one for the TeXperts.

According to T.114,

  You can control the shape of Type K slurs with variants of the
  termination command. To make the slur a bit flatter than default use
  \tfslur0f

  ...

  All of the foregoing Type K slur commands have counterparts for ties.
  Simply replace "slur" with "tie", and for terminations omit the pitch
  parameter.

But there is no \tftie0 command so the second statement is false. So how
do I get flatter Postscript ties?
