Re: [Tex-music] Why do I have a thick bar at the end of a line??
I tried your example and got the same bar after the musixflx. The solution is to put a % after each line and remove the backslashes at the end of line.

[Tex-music] rests in polyphonic music
When I tried to write 2 voices into the same system I found the following 2 problems: 1) both voices have a rest at the same time. Is there a command for a non-spacing rest? 2) When the stems for the upper voice go up and stems for the lower voice go down, slurs must be above the stems of the upper voice and below the stems of the lower voice and not at the position of the note heads. Is there a possibility to adjust the slurs correctly? I assume that there is a solution, but I couldn't find anything in the Musixtex manual. -- Thanks to all who may help. _ Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] D-76287 Rheinstetten _ ___ Tex-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

I'm writing musixtex because it is part of a larger article in Latex. My problem is, that I want to put two rests one above the other for the two voices. None of them should be invisible.

[TeX-music] short piece of music ending without bar
I use MusixTeX to put short excerpts of music into a larger piece of text. This works very well except for the end of the excerpt: although I put no \bar at the end of the piece, MusixTex always generates a bar at the end which is annoying because the excerpt normally ends within a bar.

Re: [TeX-music] short piece of music ending without bar
Thanks for the hint. It works for extracts which do not exceed one line. If the pieces become larger I can no longer uset \startextract and \endextract and have to use \startpiece and \endpiece.

[Tex-music] musixtex with more than 20 music examples
I have written a book containing several hundred examples of music, each of them of the size of only one or two lines. When I compile the individual chapters of the book containing less than 20 pieces separately, there is no problem, but when all the chapters are put together, musixtex stops working after 20 pieces of music, and the 2nd latex run stops after the 20th piece (LaTeX is blocked). It seems that there is a limitation to musixtex as far as the number of pieces is concerned. Is it possible to extend this? -- Gerhard Eber --- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

The problem is in the first Latex run which produces the .mx1 file. After a certain number of pieces no output is produced for the rest of pieces, so there is nothing for them in the .mx1 file. The musixflx run then produces a .mx2 file containing only 194 lineset commands. This is the reason why the second Latex run stops with some error message: it fails to read the input for these pieces from the .mx2 file.
