Mup music publication program
Mup is a music publication program created for handling almost any kind of music, producing professional-looking results, yet be quick and easy to use. In 1995 the authors, 2 musicians and computer programmers, set up a website to make Mup available as shareware. In 2012, after 17 years of adding features, they decided to make it open-source software that is available for free to everyone.
Characteristics
The notation is done via text input, which Mup interprets and processes to PostScript output.
