 From looking in the code in musixtex.tex it seems that you can get the 
symbols with \musixchar60, \musixchar80 and \musixchar86, respectively. 
You need to load musixtex.

You have to position the symbols yourself, I think. I tried something like:
\newcommand{\writesegno}{\hbox to 1.5em{\kern 0.6em\musixchar86\hss}}

I don't know if there is a better way. I'm sure there is but you 
probably need to look in the documentation for musixtex to find out how.
