RE: Musixflx pass with musixtex?
Thanks for help. I didn't try because I've a new problem: since I use BibLatex, I couldn't have both Biblatex and musixflx work (I just tried without biblatex before): something doesn't work, perhaps because both systems require a 3-pass system. I'll try to give some details when I'll try all in a controlled environment. thanks Piero Date: Mon, 27 Oct 2008 10:45:32 -0400 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] CC: lyx-users@lists.lyx.org Subject: Re: Musixflx pass with musixtex?

I think it's a simple thing, because, following the Musixtex docs, I already could have it work manually by: 1- export to a .tex file 2- making a 3-pass system (executing Latex - musixflx - latex) but you can imagine how lazy I can get when it comes to check the final layout of my document every time I need it!!! Please help, I know it's very simple. I don't know about very simple, but it can be done. Probably you should write some sort of little batch file that will do the 3-pass business. This file should take two arguments: The input filename and the output filename. Let's say that it lives at c:\myfile.bat. Now define a new format (dvim, say) in PreferencesFormats. Just modify the DVI format and then hit Add. (This dialog is confusing.) Now, go to Converters and define one that converts LaTeX to your new format (dvim). You can just modify the Latex--DVI format here. The converter will be: c:\myfile.bat $$i $$o That should work. You can do much the same sort of thing for pdf. rh _ Tutto il mondo MSN a portata di clic! http://toolbar.msn.com/overview.aspx?loc=it-it
