pmx.tex issues a \systemnumbers declaration, which must be revoked
(countermanded?) by a \barnumbers or \nobarnumbers command. Furthermore
it may be necessary to redefine \writebarno, which is extensively
modified in pmx.tex (with respect to the definition in musixtex.tex).
While the topic arises: Hello Don Simons! Are you standing by please? Is
it possible to split the \writebarno macro in pmx.tex in parts: one part
that does the actual writing of the bar number (the \boxit{ ... } stuff)
and another part that does the baseline computation stuff? Then it will
be easier to adapt the number writing part without having to duplicate
the other part.
Furthermore I observed that there are some hard-coded font selection
commands in pmx.tex (like \tenrm and \eightit), which make it
non-trivial to change to different (PS) fonts. Maybe it's possible to
replace these by style-switching commands (\normtype\rm, \smalltype\it)?
