Hi, Bob--
Without remembering that you had recently developed single-note tremulo macros for musixtex, I worked out some of my own to be used with PMX. Dieter just reminded me that you had already created such macros, so naturally I've been looking at using them instead. But I think I come across a problem with them. When I did it before, I adjusted the vertical position by changing the pitch of the \ib command, whereas you did that by putting everything in an hbox, assuming the user would use the pitch of the applicable note as the argument for \trm. I think that your method insulates the outside world from any octave adjustments (with ' or `) inside the hbox. If that's correct, it's going to make it tricky for me to use your macros with PMX, because PMX keeps a running tab on what octave adjustments if any are needed whenever a pitch is used as an argument for anything. Am I understanding this correctly? If so, obviously I could go back square 1 and use the macros I had created, which as I said do not use any hbox but adjust the vertical position by adjusting the pitch argument of the beam commands, and that fits right in with PMX's way of tracking pitch levels. Or maybe I could scratch my head and figure out a way to have PMX deal with this feature of your macros. But I wonder if there's any way I can get around the issue (remove the barrier imposed by the hbox) and still use your macros. --Don
