PMX offers non-printing (blank) rests and positioning of rests.
Using PMX-syntax following should work with M-Tx too:
f8 f rb f f // a8+ f r+0 c+ za a
^ ^^
or: f8 f r+0 f f // a8+ f r+0 c+ za a :-)
With instrumental music I've often seen two or more rest one over
the other if there are two or more voices in one staff. It may look
ugly but it describes very well what's going on.
Because M-Tx's syntax is highly dependant on PMX's syntax any
M-Tx user should at least know PMX's excellent reference table.
It's either ref220.ps or ref220.tex or
