searching for MusiXTeX "engraving files"

Post by rdtennent »

Is there any way to search IMSLP to find scores generated by MusiXTeX and whose source files are available? To test software I've written, I need examples. (PMX-generated musixtex files are not suitable.)

For CPDL I created a (quite rough) tool that searches "in parallel" both CPDL and IMSLP. It is available here:

http://www.cpdl.org/wiki/index.php/Chor ... ite_Search

If you use "musixtex" as the search keyword and "All words in page text" as the search option, you'll get a list of pages in CPDL and IMSLP where the keyword "musixtex" is present. This query provides hundreds of results. There will be some false positives, however, if the purpose is to find examples, you can certainly get many.
