You're right, and in your example it seems that barsant.tex was correctly accessed. I'm rather puzzeled how your script could have gotten it right for barsant.pmx but not for simplest.pmx > It seems that iTeXMac does > something to a file so that its extension is dropped from what > you see when its listed in a OS X file browser, but the UNIX OS > uses the extension ... in short I need to investigate further > .... sorry for the confusion. > > About PMX and the binaries: I compiled them on my computer, using > 'Apple Developer Tools' which include GNU gcc and everything.

There have been many useful improvements since 2.3. You may need to change two calls to getarg near the top of the FORTRAN source; search for "getarg" and read the comments there. As to distributing or posting your binary in the archive: A while back, Olivier Vogel posted OS X binaries for PMX 2.410 http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk/software/pmx/PMX.pkg.sit and M-Tx, not sure about which version since the web page says 0.52 but Christian mentioned 0.54b http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk/software/mtx/M-Tx.pkg.sit I requested some confirmation that these were usable, and so far all I have heard is from Steven Brenton who failed at installing PMX. Since this is the more up-to-date version we should wait a bit and see if Olivier, Steven, and any other macophiles can figure out why his PMX binary wouldn't work for Steven. Also, has anyone successfully installed the M-Tx binary? --Don Simons _______________________________________________ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
