So far so good. But what about my question (a week ago) about
polyrhythmic meter changes, differently for different voices ?? Nobody
answered that one, so here it is again:

Subject: [TeX-music] yet another question (to be answered in the tricks
archive?!)
Before asking, all the thanks to Don for the wonderful pmx!!
Question: how can one change the meter for each instrument individually,
for coding polyrythmic music in pmx ? What I mean is have voice 1 play
in 4/4, voice 2 in 3/4, voice 3 in 5/5 etc. This occurs
not only in 20th century music (Stravinsky, Messiaen etc.), but even
Mozart did this (e.g. in quartet KV 370, last movement, which is
generally in 6/8, but in midstream the oboe changes to 4/4 (per bar),
while the other 3 voices continue in 6/8! I always knew this was hard
to play, but now I find it even hard to write down!).
Is there a solution?
A somewhat related question: the pmx manual says that the last note of an
xtuplet can not be a rest. But this occurs quite often in musical
practice, e.g in triplets, of which only the first 2 notes are sounded.
Why the restriction in pmx?
Thanks again!
