[comp.music] where R "music" & Eric Foxley?

mjs@hpfcso.HP.COM (Marc Sabatella) (08/28/90)

I have seen a paper on a very impressive (blows MuTex out of the water) music
typesetting programming called "music", which is apparently a troff
preprocessor.  The article was by Eric Foxley, with a listed E-mail address
of <ef@cs.nott.ac.uk>, but no one here has been able to reach him at this
address.

Does anyone know where I can reach Eric, or know how I can go about getting a
copy of "music"?  Email responses appreciated; I'll post when I find a path
to "music".

I got "music" source from Eric, but I do not have an Apple LaserWriter (we
here at HP have our own brand of printers :-).  While "music" can be coerced
into producing output that requires no special fonts, the results are not
nearly as satisfying as those obtained with the LaserWriter and the Sonata
font.

Does anyone know of a Sonata workalike for HP Laserjet printers?  None of our
catalogs seem to list any.
