I'm a long-time and enthusiastic \LaTeX{} user, and I'm also an

So, to write \LaTeX{} documents that include music we have to solve
two problems: how do we make the music in a suitable format? And how
do we combine the music with \LaTeX?
-For my own self-training, and hoping to do something useful for other

\subsection{Preliminaries}

-install the latest release of \href{https://www.tug.org/texlive/}{TeX
-Live}, which I used to typeset this manual and all included examples
-on a GNU/Linux system (TeX Live 2018). On Debian-based GNU/Linux

-other needed components will be installed as dependencies. I suppose
-that other distributions like \href{https://miktex.org/}{MiKTeX} or

+\href{https://www.tug.org/texlive/}{TeX Live}, which I used to typeset
+this manual and all included examples on a GNU/Linux system (TeX Live
+2018). Please note that on Debian-based GNU/Linux systems, and maybe
+other distributions, the default TeX Live packages may be older. I
+suppose that other \TeX{} distributions like
+\href{https://miktex.org/}{MiKTeX} or
\href{http://www.tug.org/mactex/}{MacTeX} are just as good, but I have
no first-hand experience with them.
Secondly, we need a Bash-based command line environment; this is
-provided by default in GNU/Linux and macOS systems. I recommend that
-Windows users install the \href{http://www.msys2.org/}{MSYS2}
+provided by default in GNU/Linux and macOS systems. Windows users
+should install the excellent \href{http://www.msys2.org/}{MSYS2}
platform.
In most cases, typesetting is done with the common \cmd{pdflatex}
-command. Some packages, however, require the \XeLaTeX{} or \LuaLaTeX{}
-engines. In that case, you'll also have to install
-\file{texlive-xetex} or \file{texlive-luatex}. In this manual,
-\cmd{pdflatex} is the default command, unless otherwise specified.
