Re: [Tex-music] MTX file can't add another line
Hi Aki, the problem in your example is the last bar in line 10: It is too short (only 1/2 note in a 4/4 bar). When it is the very last bar, the error isn't shown, as incomplete bars might occur as pickups or in the end of the piece. But when you use the next line, the error gets detected - this is what > Line has 3 bars + 32/64 notes > c4 [ c8 d ] e4 [ e8 f ] | g4 [ a8 g ] e2 | g4 [ f8 e ] d4 [ e8 d ] | c2 | > Line does not end at complete bar: ERROR on line 10 means.

[Tex-music] wrong height of brace and shift of rest
Hi, in the attached piece the square brace grouping the choir is too large. It seems to have to do something with the different sizes of the staves. The second problem is the shifted full-bar rest in the top voice in the first bar. It seems that the vertical shift uses the wrong size.

Re: [Tex-music] Lyrics and Chord Symbols
Hi Simon, after searching the WIMA for several days I understood so far, that the proper way of typesetting music including lyrics is using M-Tx. I did not find a way to add chord symbols to my sheet of music via M-Tx so far. M-Tx is quite convenient for music with lyrics - but it is also not too difficult to do the same stuff directly in pmx. You can just take a piece written in M-Tx, compile it to pmx and see the few lines defining the lyrics part (with musixlyr definitions - it is quite easy to learn from the pmx file), if you already know and like pmx. Is it possible to do so by M-Tx or do I have to write my music and lyrics in M-Tx, compile the *.mtx-file to *.pmx and add the chords by hand into the *.pmx-file (i.e. using pmxchord)? Usually, you can use any pmx commands in M-Tx files - nearly all commands that M-Tx doesn't understand are just passed to pmx. I like the header parts and the lyrics definitions of M-Tx more than the ones of pmx :-) But it's just a matter of taste...

What about psbook for re-arranging pages for a booklet out of a ps file (actually gs with an apropriate set of command line arguments, afaik) or pdfbook (similar command line arguments and features, but relying on pdflatex including full-page figures in a new pdf, if I remember correctly)?

Re: [Tex-music] wrong bracket size
Hi Dirk, Do they look OK if you omit this line: Space: -3 -2 -2 -2 -2 +3 that doesn't change this problem. Playing a bit further, however, I just found out that omitting the line Size: 16 16 20 seems to help. So it looks as if the height or the upper ending position of the bracket gets messed up when there are different staff sizes - it also looks OK when I change the overall size to 16 with Size: 16 However, I don't understand why the bracket is too high although it is already in the larger staff sizes. If so, the problem would be that the TeX code emitted by \mtxGroup does not take into account the settings implied by the \mtxInterInstrument commands before it. Interesting idea. Normally it seems to work. But I don't know how the change in staff sizes is organized. Could there be a problem with the context of the dimension \Interligne ? I won't be able to help any further in that case, apart from quoting from mtx.tex: % All TeX commands put directly into PMX files by M-Tx are defined below, % except the following: % 1. \input mtx % 2. code to achieve a multi-bar rest % 3. User's own inline TeX % 4. \mtxversion and \mtxdate are defined in prepmx itself % 5. Utterly basic TeX commands like \ and % % It is therefore possible for a TeXpert to tune the performance % of M-Tx without touching the preprocessor. Thus, it is quite possible that the problem could be fixed by changing some macros in mtx.tex. Unfortunately, in the 11 years since I last revised mtx.tex, all the necessary musixtex skills that I presumably must have had at the time, have evaporated. I never got deep enough into musixtex to know how the positioning is done and can be modified...

Re: [Tex-music] Back to square one after a long break from typesetting
Hi Raphaela, (raphaela may have a local helper, but if that helper is hot enough to know about tl 2013, it's a bit odd that she needs _our_ help.) Correct. I'm on my own! My next step will be to attempt to remove the existing TeX installation using the software manager, and then go with your strand (b). Actually, that's not necessary (if you have enough space). Have a look at http://www.tug.org/TUGboat/tb32-1/tb100gregorio.pdf for a detailed description of the installation of texlive on debian-based systems. Version 2013 should work the same way. I don't know if mint uses sudo command to execute a command with root rights (on my debian it is not configured like this). If that doesn't work, use su to get a root shell and type in the commands without sudo. Anything else should work the same way. Once I have a TeX installation in place that tlmgr (which seems to have been somewhat crudely removed from the full version in the repositories, since some screenshots of the interface are still there but not the executable itself), I might stand a better chance of being able to follow the musixtex installation instructions on the WIMA site. To that end, would someone be kind enough to explain how to add the relevant bin directory to my PATH? Where would I find the PATH and how do I add things to it? The bin directory you should use is /usr/local/bin (you need to have root rights to put stuff there). This directory is automagically on the PATH. But with the texlive version from ctan you shouldn't need that - getting the packages via tlmgr should do the job.

Re: [Tex-music] vertical space of interstaff compiled with pdflatex
Hi Don, I tried to look into your problem but your file requires the file scrartcl.cls, evidently part of a package called templates-fenn, and I can't find either of them in a form I can use with MiKTeX 2.6. If you can provide a further-stripped-down version that doesn't require exotic tex-live packages, I'd still be willing to take a look, although without any guarantees at all due to my rudimentary experience with latex. scrartcl.cls is part of the KOMAscript bundle, which is available in MikTeX (at least in the current version 2.9, but also in the older versions 2.8 and 2.7.). At least in Germany, it is now most often recommended as standard LaTeX document class, as it is better configurable than article and matches better European or at least German layout traditions. With article.cls (and no Russian babel option, is not installed at my computer), the problem seems to be the same. The modified source is below.

[Tex-music] m-tx/pmx: ignoring repeats etc. at end of file
Hello, I still have the problem that m-tx/pmx ignores commands after the last note at the end of the piece, as I tried to explain some time ago. An example, where the last repeat is ignored, is included at the end of this mail. Running m-tx, the repeat sign is included at the end of the last block, followed by a strange linebreak and the / for the end of the staff. The repeat gets lost in the pmx run. The tex-file finishes the piece with \Endpiece I can get it back if I manually delete an empty line between the last block and the very last comment line in the pmx file.

Re: [Tex-music] M-Tx: Repeat at the end ignored
Hi Don, Mine too comes out WITH the final repeat. I'm running M-Tx 0.60d, pmx 2.615, musixtex 1.15, MiKTeX 2.6, under Windows XP. This may have something to do with end-of-line characters in different OS's, which I've never completely figured out how to handle in PMX. how is the last bar of the generated pmx code? Is there also that new line with / at the end? And which line end characters (of the PMX or M-Tx file?) do you have? By the way, Ubuntu and Debian should have the same builds, don't they?

In your mail from Sun Apr 24 11:49:11, you told me that you included these commands in PMX: ;-) As to whether you need etex or not with 1.15, the answer is yes and no: Yes, for ANY musixtex file generated with PMX, because I took the easy way out and had PMX always insert the commands \setmaxslurs{24}\setmaxinstruments{24} . And no, if you use a manually generated musixtex file that doesn't use more than 12 voices. That's this part of the mystery. And perhaps this also explains why the etex package must be loaded?

Re: [TeX-Music] Lyrics are not displayed in resulting *.pdf or *.dvi file after compiling a *.mtx file
Hi Dieter, instead of Style: Piano you should use a style with lyrics. When you need something like piano staves with text, it could be TEXTPIANO: Voices RH LH; Choral; Clefs G F Style: Textpiano Just have a look at p.8 of the manual, there are the different possibilities explained. Good luck, Simon I've used musictex in combination with LaTeX two years ago to layout two pieces of music. Since one week I'm trying to learn using MusiXTeX, PMX and M-Tx, and my first steps typesetting notes were successful so far. But trying to add some lyrics is the beginning of my problems. When adding text as noted in M-Tx manual to my piece of music I compile it using the process prepmx - pmxab - tex - musixflx - tex - dvipdfm. But unfortunately only the notes are visible, not the lyrics! So I tested arround but everything seems to be fine, because there are no errors displayed during compilation or in the log files. To find out if I'm in trouble with my MikTeX installation under WindowsXP I've tested typesetting using the example Net soos ek is from Dirk Laurie's M-Tx manual. And what should I say? Everything is fine (... what else ...)! ___ tex-mu...@icking-music-archive.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://mailman.nfit.au.dk/mailman/listinfo/icking-music-archive.org-tex-music

Is there a common way of specifying it, so that you can use it for many different editors? I think this would be the most important thing to do.

Re: [TeX-Music] smart musixtex.cmd script, Acrobat reader
Hello Jean-Pierre, The trouble is that if I left the previous Acrobat window open, the current call to MiKTeX Ghostscript ps2pdf fails because my .pdf file cannot be overwritten, and I stay with the previous version displayed. another (often used) option is to use Foxit Reader http://foxitsoftware.com/ instead of the Adobe Reader. AFAIK it can't update the loaded PDF, so you have to close and re-open it manually, but it doesn't lock the PDF. There seems to be a script-based solution to automatically close and re-open the PDF, but I didn't try it myself: Just search for foxit and latex or TeXnicCenter (even if you don't use them). Foxit Reader is a very nice alternative to Adobe Reader! Another nice (and /very/ light) PDF viewer is sumatrapdf http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/ It's free and very slim, but doesn't lock PDFs and can reload them (by just typing r). Just try them out, if they would be an alternative for you.

Hello Christof, Because Thomas Esser (the former tetex maintainer) stopped his support in favour of texlive? I had not heard that. As far I read his email, he stopped support of TeX packages which are on ctan anyhow, but promised to continue to support the tetex binaries. Has that changed in the meantime? the teTeX entry of the CTAN catalogue says: In 2006, Thomas Esser announced he would no longer be able to support, or to produce new versions of, teTeX. With the appearance of TeX-live 2007 (texlive) (whose Unix-system TeX support originally derived from teTeX), no-one should be using teTeX at all, in new applications.

Hello, I tried to get http://icking-music-archive.org/scores/loewe/schaffe_in_mir_gott.zip to work with the Ap option. But when I insert it, the generated pmx code is invalid. The problem is that the crescendo/decrescendo macros get messed up. There should be an identifier (the current staff / voice number for example) which gets start and end of the hairpin matching.

[TeX-music] Re: tex input at the begin of a block
Thank you very much for the tip - it works fine! As I got similar problems already some times before (TeX-input put at the wrong place or ignored), my question is if it would be possible to add a fourth command to PMX which puts a TeX-command just /before/ the current block, after all line breaks and such things. Also, it would be nice if TeX-input after the last note of a block (with the input-commands of any type) could be inserted and would not be ignored as they are now. Would it take major efforts to make such changes or additions? Best regards, Simon First of all I found a problem using your trick to get the last double bar line as a standard bar rule: You put \\\stdbarrule\ at the begin of the last bar / the last line. But unfortunatey, without your various definitions before the block, the bar rule /before/ this bar is also a standard bar rule. Is there any possibility to put TeX-commands at the beginning of a block instead of the end of the block that is coded before, as the TeX-Input with \\\code\ ? Look at the following little examples, in both examples the code is at the wrong place, before \alaligne or before the code of the page break. And after the /last/ note, \\\code\ is simply ignored (why?). The trick is to redefine \Endpiece such that it calls \stdbarrules Style: SATB Meter: C Bars/line: 1 %% \input musixlit %% \\let\Endpiecesav\Endpiece\ %% \\def\Endpiece{\let\Endpiece\Endpiecesav\stdbarrules\Endpiece}\ %% \\interbarrules\ c0 g0 e0 c0 c0 g0 e0 c0 ___ TeX-music mailing list TeX-music@icking-music-archive.org http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
[TeX-music] longa and barless music with m-tx/pmx
Hello, I typeset the piece included at the end of this message (with m-tx). But as the last note in the highest voice I'd like to have a longa instead of the tied notes. The last notes in the other voices should be brevis instead of whole notes. Is it possible to get these notes here? The next problem is the barless music itself. I'd like to have bar lines between the voices every second whole note. Unfortunately there are many notes that begin in a bar and end in the next one, so I can't code it straight forward as in music with bars. Has anybody an idea how to get the bar lines and avoid tied notes (I think this would be ugly in this piece)?

Re: [TeX-music] pmx installation under SuSE Linux 9.3
Hello Hartmut, the MusiXTeX Debian package has a program /usr/bin/musixtex. These are the first comment lines of the script: #!/usr/bin/perl -w [...] Maybe the SuSE package has a similar script. You can try to use the script from the SuSE MusiXTeX package. I think there is no need to uninstall the older version of MusixTeX at all. All you have to do is to put your .tex-stuff into your local TEXMF-tree, as you already did, and to put the executables at /usr/local/bin. Make sure they are executable! The commands ls -l /usr/local/bin/musixflx ls -l /usr/local/bin/pmxab ls -l /usr/local/bin/scor2prt should give an output beginning with -rwxr-xr-x Before you can use musixtex, you will also have to execute texhash as root! Without this, tex doesn't find any new file and the new version is just ignored.

Re: [TeX-music] LaTeX help wanted for new musixdoc
Don Simons wrote: I've received a proposed update to the musixtex distribution from Olivier Vogel. Christian and I are in the process of cleaning up some loose ends before officially posting it. One problem neither of us has a quick solution to concerns the vertical alignment of pages in musixdoc.tex. The attached pdf illustrates the problem. It was made with dvips -tletter. I think the documentation is designed for a4paper - put a4paper to the class options, and the margins look nice. In the header of musixdoc.sty I found the following comment: % american people perhaps may want to change the paper size Perhaps it would be better to specify the text size by fractions of \paperheight and \paperwidth, or at least calculate the margins with these values. By the way, using typearea (or even the whole KOMAScript bundle) or - if you want to control the text sizes and margins exactly - is _highly_ recommended for setting smaller margins. The pages are all too low (top margin is too big) and also the page number is misplaced on some pages, falling halfway off the bottom of the image. Can anyone untangle the mysteries of LaTeX and explain how to fix the vertical positioning? ___ TeX-music mailing list TeX-music@icking-music-archive.org http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
[TeX-music] \llyr has no effect at 1st note
Hallo, why do the \llyr\ -commands take no effect when placed before the first note when there is a verse number? And what about the strange behaviour when verse numbers are placed only in some of the verses? When I coded the following example (for older versions of m-tx and pmx) I had placed \llyr\lyroffset{-3}\ before the first note - I don't know which standard behaviour the old versions had. Why did it change? \lyroffset also seems to have an effect only on the numbers and no more on the first syllable, so you can't put the lyrics of the first notes to the left any more if they are a bit too long.

Re: [TeX-music] ties and midi with m-tx or pmx

[TeX-music] breve and double bar rest with m-tx / pmx, also with fermata
Hallo, how can I code a breve note with m-tx / pmx? As I want to get it in a score with many voices, some of them have rest instead of the breve note, I need double bar rests in a score with multiple voices, too. Is it possible to typeset them with m-tx / pmx? And as it is the last bar in the piece, it should get a fermata... Has anybody an idea how to do these exotic things?

[TeX-music] full bar rests and fermata
Hallo, Why the fermata at the last full bar rest is shifted to the right and not centered in the middle of the bar? How can I get it centered as on notes? The full bar rests seem to be a little bit more to the right, too; you can see it much better if you remove one of the % in the example. Shouldn't they be centered exactly?

[TeX-music] cue notes and small dynamic signs
Hallo, As I'd like to typeset a piece with many rests, I'd like to have cue notes in one of the voices. Is it possible to put all of them into a single voice added to the bass staff without influencing the direction of the stem direction of my bass voice? It would be much simpler to get different versions with or without this notes. Can I get *all* notes, rests, accidentals etc. in this voice in \tinynotesize or \smallnotesize or will I have to put it in every bar? Is it also possible to get the corresponding uptext line in a smaller font, specially dynamic signs as here the first pp, and also crescendo and decrescendo signs?

Re: [Tex-music] Why do I have a thick bar at the end of a line??
Alexander Beck-Ratzka wrote: Hello list, first of all: sorry, for sending some attachments, but a look on the dvi-file is better than a long description. My problem is that I can't get rid of a thick fat bar at the end of a line, and I don't know, why it appear. Does anyone have an Idea? Alexander Hello, Sometimes ago when I tried to use musixtex without preprocessors I got nearly the same problem. The solution was to put a % at the end of each line. As I can't view dvi-files or process your sources here I can't try it. PS: Try using preprocessors as PMX or M-Tx, it's much faster and easier to typeset and with inline musixtex-commands you can get nearly everything you can get with musixtex itself. It's worth trying it! Best regards, Simon ___ Tex-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
