Dear all. I've updated these programs and added a MusiXTeX
extension library musixtnt.tex (tnt = TransformNotes). It
defines a macro \TransformNotes which gives a flexible
and user-friendly way to "transform" the effect of notes
commands (such as \notes) in a MusiXTeX score.
In general, the effect of \TransformNotes{input}{output}
is that notes commands in the source will expect their
arguments to match the input pattern, but the notes will be
typeset according to the output pattern.
Some examples:
\TransformNotes{#2}{#3} will typeset a part for the
second instrument (#3) of a 4-instrument score.
\TransformNotes{#2}{#2&\transpose+7#3} will transpose
just the second instrument (argument #3).
\TransformNotes{#2|#3}{#2|#3&\tinynotesize#4} will
typeset the second instrument (#4) in tiny notes.
\TransformNotes{#2}{#3} will switch the order of the
two instruments.
