First, thank you very much for the new version!

Some notes regarding it:

(1) Please let me remind you of your words from last July:

=========================================================================
Thanks for staying on my case. I'll adopt the GNU General Public License for
PMX, include it in future PMX distributions, and include the following
notice in the source file:

"This program, PMX, originally developed by Don Simons
([EMAIL PROTECTED]), is a preprocessor for MusiXTeX. In concert with
MusiXTeX and TeX, its purpose is to allow the user to create high-quality
typeset musical scores by including a sequence of PMX commands in an ASCII
input file.

    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by

    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of

=========================================================================

I relied on it when integrating PMX 2.4.0 into Debian.

Now I can't find it there. Even nothing inside pmx250.zip contains the
word "license". Remember that without a license, nobody is allowed to
use or distribute PMX. Not even the Werner Icking Music Archive. As the
author, you are the primary copyright holder, and if you want to empower
users to copy and share your software you must state a license.

Please include the above promised statement somewhere in pmx250.zip and
include a copy of http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt .

(2) Please provide ref250.tex as you did for 2.3 and 2.4. At Debian (as
other source based distributions do), we prefer clean sources. Don't
worry about the right pdf output generation.

Thanks in advance!

bye,
  Roland
