we are pleased to announce that the second version of MUZIKA
notation software is now available by anonymous ftp. it is written in
borland c++ 3.1,running under windows 3.1. it is available in
a file called muzika2.zip, by anonymous ftp.


MUZIKA2 is written using object oriented code extensively,
with much thought given to easily expandable code. currently
its capabilities are:
  multiple staves, multiple part scores, most music notation,
extensive editing and block editing, automatic formatting,
and output of midi file. the last means that after creating
a musical score it can be translated to a midi file and played.
unfortunately the opposite is not possible, and input is
from a mouse only, not from a midi keyboard.

we will be happy to receive feedback, which we will take into
account when preparing following versions. our email address
appears in the "about" option once the program is running.
just in case, it's: [e-mail]

there are many improvements over the first version: the MIDI output
facility really works this time, and so does printing. support of many
basic music notation elements missing from the first version is now
implemented.

there is also an .arj file containing the manual in rtf format,
in postscript, and in .dgs format which is quite useless for anyone
outside of israel.

so, to get it: the site is piano.technion.ac.il (132.68.48.181),
in directory pub/muzika. the file is muzika2.zip. don't forget
to download it in binary. it will also be uploaded to various popular
ftp sites like simtel, garbo, and others. feel free to distribute
it to anyone you like.


good luck!
                   noam amir.
