Im editing some music for publication I just noticed what appears to be a
small but persistent flaw in MusiXTeX. When a slur extends over a line
break, its starting point (before the line break) seems to be shifted a
little bit to the left from where it ought to be. The following pmx input
illustrates this:
===============
1 1 2 4 2 4 0 0
1 2 20 0
t
./
f25u s | fu s | fu s | fu s | fu s | fu s /
================
The start of the slur in bar 1 is fine, using the PMX-generated horizontal
offset of 0.8 notehead widths. But in bar 3, the start of the second slur
is shifted enough to crash into the stem, even though the same horizontal
offset was requested.
