minskim 712840fe18 Update tex-musixtex to 1.15.
Note that the versioning scheme has changed.

Changes:
- \cclp, \zccup, \zcclp are moved from musixpoi.tex to musixtex.tex.
- musixpoi.tex does not work since T.111.
- musixmad.tex is inessential for typesetting musixdoc.tex, thus
  excluded from musixdoc.sty (see the next item)
- the stem length of \metron (at T.113 manual section 2.17.3:
  Metronomic indications) is too short when musixadd.tex/musixmad.tex
  is excluded.
- spacing problem when you change the music size.  (\clef@skip\z@)
- in \ttie and \tleg definition, #1 isn't braced in the expansion
  which causes a problem at ID>9.
  * \def\ttie#1{\let\T@i\@c \t@slur{-\p@ne}{#1}\@ne}
  * \def\tleg#1{\let\T@i\@c \tslur{#1}\@ne}
- Updated musixdoc.pdf and its source code.
- Included the repository of music-notation mistakes, contributed by
  Jean-Pierre Coulon.
- Create an install manual for MiKTeX on Win32: mxinsuse.{pdf|tex}.
- utility: add flip.exe, flip.txt to musixtexadd folder instead of
  former utod.exe and dtou.exe (they don't work in XP).  Run flip.exe
  on musixtex.bat.
- Changing directory structure.  Add-in tex files are located in
  musixtexadd directory.
  * musixlyr (by Rainer Dunker)
  * musixps (by Stanislav Kneifl)
- Added some well-known add-ins to musixtexadd directory.
  * curly.tex (by Mthimkhulu Molekwa,19 May 1999)
  * musixdbr.tex (by Rainer Dunker, 23 February 2002)
  * musixtmr.tex & musixesf.tex (by Hiroaki Morimoto, updated 2009-10-15)
  * tuplet.tex. (by Col. G. L. Sicherman. 2003-05-17)
- Include the contents of following packages.
  * PostScript Type1 fonts. (by Uchiyama)
  * musixlyr ver.2.1c. (by Rainer Dunker)
  * musixps ver.0.92a. (by Stanislav Kneifl)
- \Ioctfin[up | down] do not work when \sepbarrules is assigned.
  musixtex.tex line 2259, \def\rul@sep#1
- Correction of a bug in the definition of choir bracket (l.1688-1698)
- Added following macros.
  * \lwp
  * \rwp
  * \lwpp
  * \rwpp
  * \lhp
  * \rhp
  * \lhpp
  * \rhpp
- all-new registers allocation routines, ready for
    12<n<100 instruments
     6<n<100 128th beams
     6<n<100 256th beams
     4<n<100 groups
    12<n<100 font-based slurs (independent of the number of instruments)
     6<n<100 octlines
     6<n<100 trills (MusiXTeX trills only. MusicTeX's legacy "trilles" are
     out of scope.) with e-TeX.

MusiXTeX is a set of macros, based on the earlier MusicTeX, for
typesetting music with TeX. MusicTeX demonstrated that TeX alone cannot
practically typeset good-looking ties and slurs. There is therefore a
separate processor, musixflx, in the bundle, which uses the output of
MusiXTeX to position the slurs. As a result, MusixTeX is a three-pass
system: TeX, musixflx, and TeX again. This version of MusixTeX builds
upon work by Andreas Egler, whose own version is no longer being
developed. Raw MusiXTeX macros are universally acknowledged to be tricky
to write: most users employ the pmx preprocessor, which takes much of
the strain.
