Hello,
I am trying to typeset my first piece using M-Tx & Co.
It is a psalm where the different verses have a variable number of
syllables to be sung on the same note.
In Musixtex this should be typeset using a \zwq - not with a \wh as I did.
If you are interested in this problem, I hope that you can compile the
following code (if not, I can send you a dvi or ps file).
Unfortunately for me (and this psalm), pmx and thus mtx do not know the
concept of a note which can have any number of syllables. So I used an "a0".
The text to come below this note is one single word for pmx because I used
"~" instead of spaces. This trick works fine... except for the alignment
(and the missing vertical bars around \zwq which is only a \wh)
I tried to put \leftlyrtrue and \llyr at different places in this code, but
without visible results.
Do you have an idea?
