doc\generic\musixtex is the _proper_ (for some value of ...) place in the TDS (tex directory structure) for code involved in the (re-) generation of documentation. so it's no surprise that the source files for the package are there. however, are they really never used in running musixtex in the ordinary course of events (i've never used either, but it's an age since i used musixtex). if they are common things in run-of-the mill use of musixtex, they should be in tex/generic/musixtex/ along with musixtex.tex itself. (tex live doesn't have it there ... at least not my tl'13 ... i really must update!) i presume no-one has told the distribution generators, if that's the case; they won't necessarily guess where a file with such a left-field name as curly.tex should go. afaik, there's no-one in the distribution teams is a musixtex user. robin the ex-musixtex user ------------------------------- [email protected] mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
