, i.e. a straight and breaking line below the staff, something like this:

Is anything similar possibile with MusiXTeX, and how?
Well, of course anything is possible with MusiXTeX, since all of
TeX is available. The following command simply draws the three
line segments below the staff.
\zchar{-6}{\vrule height0pt depth10pt width0.5pt
\vrule height-9.5pt depth10pt width8\elemskip
\vrule height0pt depth10pt width0.5pt}%
I inserted it into the .tex file made by `musixtex -t mozart`
from the source `mozart.mtx` that comes with M-Tx and
then `musixtex mozart.tex` gives the attached result.
Converting the above ad-hoc construction to a convenient
macro is left as an exercise for the reader.
Another approach to line drawing for pedal marks etc. is the use of
postscript specials through pstricks. An example is my modern edition of
a 5-part madrigal by Orazio Vecchi, 'Gioite tutti'
http://imslp.org/wiki/Gioite_tutti_(Vecchi,_Orazio)
where I apply pstricks line drawing to implement marks for mensural
notation ligatures and hemioles. The TeX coding is in the file
'MyMacros.tex' found in the zip file
