Thanks Don! It's very nice. But the combination note-slur-pause *does*
make musical sense, especially in instruments like the harp or
percussion: it means that the player must not stop the vibration of the
strings (harp) or the body of the instrument (tubes). Berg uses it in
the horns too, to indicate that the end of the sound must not be abrupt.

I tried it, but pmx does not accept it.
