Thanks for giving your comments Dirk and Don,

When making a booklet i need a list of inputfiles that look like this one

\input file1.tex
\input file2.tex
\input file2.tex

This files are produced by pmx and are needed to provide the pagenumbers and a table of contents. The dummy files can't be removed from the tex files.

Thanks to Dieter, i made my method for making a booklet of sheets in tex a little bit more manageable. Whoever wants to look at it is here:

Andre, this couldn't be more elegant! The inline TeX doesn't require any
dimensioning. If I ever finish my current PMX improvement project (blank
gaps) I may consider trying to build this method into PMX.

But I do wonder exactly what you mean when you say that a dummy page cannot
be used when making a booklet. If you start with a PDF, you can always
manually delete one page from it before processing it further. (Unless of
course that offends your sensibilities.)

Subject: [Tex-music] pmx - increasing the number of instruments

Dear all,

If i want to increase the number of instruments (ie. starting with 1
instrument and then go one with 2), pmx must be started with the maximum
of instruments. I have to made a dummy first page with the maximum of
instruments and then throw it away. But if making a booklet, this cannot
be
done.

A method of making it working is putting 2 instruments above each other,
so
only 1 can be seen. This tex commands ie. are used therefore:
\\interstaff{13}\setinterinstrument1{-13\Interligne}\

Now i'm trying a more elegant (?) method by setting the size of the
instrument to 0. This works for 1 staff instruments.  I have added an
example
the clarifies it a little more i hope.

I like to get comments on this or hints to improve.
