I have been using MusicTex 5.20 to set a variety of instrumental music, but have lately been trying to adapt it for drum scores. The scores I'm trying to write have a single line for the staff, which causes several problems:
1) The time signature is placed above the staff. In the tradition for which this is being scored, it should be centered around the single-line staff. This is annoying but not serious. 2) Similarly, certain notation such as the double dot repeat symbol also print above the single-line staff rather than being centered about the staff line. Again, I can probably live with this but it is annoying. 3) The big problem is that none of the bar lines show up! The MusicTex macros appear to draw this from the bottom line of the staff to the top, I need the bar lines (both single and double bars) to extend above and below the staff some distance (exact amount is not critical). I've tried rewriting the relevant MusicTex macros without success. Although I've been able to use the MusicTex macros fairly well, I don't think I know enough about the design of MusicTex to figure out how to do this without considerable effort. Does anyone have any ideas how this should be done? Bruce _______________________________________________ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
