This is an omission in musixtex.tex, version T112.
I'm writing a piece in 4/4, so complicated that I asked for my
first M-Tx PMX tex compile before completing the first bar.
PMX complained. Reason: if the last bar of a piece is incomplete,
M-Tx issues a blind meter change to make it look complete. But
now the last bar is also the first bar.
The PMX manual states: Duration is never inherited and must be set
at the start of each input block.
A little experimentation with omitting to set duration reveals:
1. At the start of the piece, duration is 0 (i.e. whole notes).
2. Duration is inherited from the preceding voice.

On the PMX 2.50 reference card, the syntax for accidentals in
a note is given as
[f,s,n] Accidental. Repeat for double.
[+,- i +,- x] Vertical shift, \internotes; horiz. shift, notehead widths.
[, x] Horiz. shift, notehead widths.
[i] MIDI-only accidental.
The story starts with my old bugbear: the PMX benign bug which distributes
free vertical space everywhere. In particular, it spreads the staves within
a system further apart rather than doing what I would prefer: put all free
vertical space between systems. Of course, it is not really a PMX bug:
MusiXTeX has a macro \larpeggio which gives a left-shifted arpeggio, to
be used when some notes in a chord contain accidentals. PMX 2.50x does
not support it: the ? ... ? construction generates either \arpeggio or
\raisearp, a refinement which sets the arpeggio symbol half a notehead
higher. It

To that end, would someone be kind enough to explain how to add the
relevant bin directory to my PATH? Where would I find the PATH and how
do I add things to it?
Say you have some excutables in /home/raphaela/texmf/bin.
$ echo $PATH

I know that M-Tx is not aware of movement breaks and the possibility to
change
the number of voices (MTX manual p. A-7).
The reason for that is that I have never needed the feature myself and therefore
did not master how to use it from PMX. I

So problem solved? Why go any further?
Well, actually M-Tx is supposed to be clever enough to
do this (and does, when it is a plain barline). So failing
to do so when it is a repeat counts as a bug. I'll try to
hunt it down (although I've stopped

Until I get this fixed, the best workaround is:
1. Use plain bar lines.
2. Insert an explicit left repeat in what will become PMX's first voice.
OK, I have fixed it and the changes are on my GitHub repository,

Instead I manually downloaded mtxP060d.zip from the Icking

Does your zipfile extractor have an option to convert text
files to local format? Otherwise, if your system does not

Do they look OK if you omit this line:
Space: -3 -2 -2 -2 -2 +3
If so, the problem would be that the TeX code emitted by
\mtxGroup does not take into account the settings implied

I'm setting a piece in 2/2 meter. One part consists
