Different mail systems work differently, but there are several possible problems when cutting and pasting PMX (or TeX) code from email messages. The most common is lines being folded. You need to visually scan what you pasted and unfold where necessary. It's also possible though not likely that there are extra characters at the beginning of each line, but this would generally only occur if you have cut something from what is already a reply.
There was a flaw in Andre's solution. When I pointed it out, he privately replied " i was stupid to use \ha it must be respectively \hl \hu \hl \hu" I haven't experimented with this substitution. --Don Simons >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:tex-music- >[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Adam Fenn >Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 2008 12:03 PM >To: Werner Icking Music Archive >Subject: Re: [TeX-Music] A challenge for PMX/TeXperts > > >> New example: >> >======================================================================== >=========== >> 1 1 16 4 16 4 0 -3 >> 0 3 20 0 >> >> t >> ./ >> \\let\whsav\wh\let\husav\hu\let\hlsav\hl\ >> \\def\FE{\ >> \\def\hl##1{\let\hu\husav\let\hl\hlsav\let\wh\whsav\ >> >\\relax{\advance\transpose2\loffset{0.5}{\ibl0{##1}9}\roffset{0.5}{\tbl0 >}}\ha{##1}}\ >> \\def\hu##1{\let\hu\husav\let\hl\hlsav\let\wh\whsav\ >> \\relax{\advance\transpose- >3\loffset{0.5}{\ibu0{##1}9}\roffset{0.5}{\tbu0}}\ha{##1}}\ >> \\def\wh##1{\let\wh\whsav\let\hu\husav\let\hl\hlsav\ >> \\relax{\advance\transpose- >2\loffset{1}{\ibu0{##1}9}\roffset{0}{\tbu0}}\wh{##1}}}\ >> \\def\FEE{\ >> \\def\hl##1{\let\hu\husav\let\hl\hlsav\let\wh\whsav\ >> >\\relax{\advance\transpose2\loffset{0.5}{\ibbl0{##1}9}\roffset{0.5}{\tbl >0}}\ha{##1}}\ >> \\def\hu##1{\let\hu\husav\let\hl\hlsav\ >> \\relax{\advance\transpose- >3\loffset{0.5}{\ibbu0{##1}9}\roffset{0.5}{\tbu0}}\ha{##1}}\ >> \\def\wh##1{\let\wh\whsav\let\hu\husav\let\hl\hlsav\ >> \\relax{\advance\transpose- >2\loffset{1}{\ibbu0{##1}9}\roffset{0}{\tbu0}}\wh{##1}}}\ >> % >> \\def\mtr#1{\zcharnote{#1}{~}\FE}\ >> g24 \FE\ g \FEE\ a a \FEE\ b \FE\ c c \FE\ a+ \FEE\ a \FE\ a+ >> g24 \FE\ f \FEE\ e a \FEE\ d \FE\ c c \FE\ a+ \FEE\ a \FE\ a+ >> g04 \FE\ g \FEE\ a a \FEE\ a2 \FE\ a \FEE\ b0 \FE\ c c \FE\ a+ \FEE\ a >\FE\ >> a+ >> g04 \FE\ f \FEE\ e a \FEE\ a2 \FE\ a \FEE\ d0 \FE\ c c \FE\ a+ \FEE\ a >\FE\ >> a+ / >> % >> g24 g os \FEE\ a a \FEE\ b c os c a+ os \FEE\ a a+ os >> g24 f os \FEE\ e a \FEE\ d c os c a+ os \FEE\ a a+ os >> g04 g os \FEE\ a a \FEE\ a2 a os \FEE\ b0 c os c a+ os \FEE\ a >> a+ os >> g04 f os \FEE\ e a \FEE\ a2 a os \FEE\ d0 c os c a+ os \FEE\ a >> a+ os / >> >> c24 os cl os d os dl os e os el os f os fl os | >> c cl d dl e el f fl / >> >======================================================================== >========== > >This is nearly what I need.
