I take this for a compliment. Or is it a suggestion to change to mtx ?

I have used pure musixtex for several years.
Then i found musixlyr very usable.
Then after several suggestions from Werner Icking i started to use pmx.
I am very happy with it. I want first to know it all before tryiing mtx.
In fact i am (in this matter) very conservatif, Mr. Icking needed 6 months
to get me on pmx.

Perhaps it is because i learned things in that order, i feel well with pmx
and musixlyr.
By holding all the lyrics together with musixlyr one can go very fast. It is
also easy to shoot trouble (troubleshoot?),
i have only to look for questionmarks in the lyrics.
It is also easy to put options, i.e. different languages in the lyrics, by
using texcommands.

I suppose in the modern times (21th century or in 2011, waiting for Mr. Don
Simons) , i will use mtx and pdf-musicsheets  ! ?
In the mean time, i am reading manuals, yes Mr. Taupin.
