Hello,

I've just tried to install MusicTeX.

When installing the music fonts on my ISC-2.2-based UNIX box, I have errors
installing the fonts musicd16 and musicd20:

  Make TeXPK musicd16 300 300 magstep(0.0)
  mf \mode:=localfont; mag:=magstep(0.0); scrollmode; input musicd16 \>/dev/null
  This is METAFONT, C Version 2.7
  (/usr/local/lib/mf/inputs/musicd16.mf)
  *
  !Emergency stop
  <*> ... g:=magstep(0.0); scrollmode; input musicd16
  Font metrics writtem on musicd16.tfm
  Transcript written on musicd16.log
  Metafont failed for some reason on musicd16.300gf

  Ditto for musicd20...

Can anyone help? I tried to apply the patches in the subdirectory
./karlmusic/mtexfont.diff to musicd16 and musicd20, but patch failed to 
on two of the four patch hunks for each file.

Thanks in advance, Paul
