remember that you may use most of the pmx commands including the chord
notes prefixed with z. Combined with pmx labeled slurs/ties you have a
reasonable method for temporarily entering chords including ties. In bar
10 this could be done:
% 10
@+6 c4 c8 zf- c+ zg c za a sAt zf sBtd a4 sAt zf sBt of+12 |
r4 r2db |
LS: Frie-den dir Frie-den, ~
LT: Frie-den geb dir
r4+0 c8 bf a ( c c4 ) |
rb4 d8 e f ( f f4 ) ofd |

Simply add a space clause in an M-Tx paragraph of its own, for example:
space: 10 2
% 14
