I have recently started a fairly substantial typesetting project (a 
solo+SATB+organ arrangement of Mascagni's Easter Chorus from Cavalleria 
Rusticana) and have found it annoying to type in so many t's to turn a 
slur into a tie.  I have therefore made a change to my personal copy of 
M-Tx, as follows:
(a) One can write { c c }{ c }{ c } instead of as before 
                  { c c )( c )( c } 
(b) {In general {..} translates to st slurs instead of t slurs as       
    before. E.g. c c }{ c }{ c } translates to PMX thus:  
        c st c st st c st st c st

This change invalidates a sentence in the present M-Tx manual suggesting 
that it is a good idea to code { ( ... ) ... } rather than 
( { ... } ... )

If I receive no violent objections to this suggestion, I shall make it 
"official" (since no one else has yet volunteered to take over the 
maintenance of M-Tx).
