Terry, glad to see you bit the bullet and started doing this in PMX. I think in the end it'll save you lots of effort.
I'll look into trapping that sort of error in a more graceful fashion. FYI, when I compile it with pmx2610 in Windows XT SP2, I get no errors or faults at all; it just doesn't produce any output. --Don Simons >-----Original Message----- >From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of >Terrence Enger >Sent: Monday, June 20, 2011 6:03 PM >To: [email protected] >Subject: [Tex-music] segmentation fault in pmxab > >Greetings, > >I know from Noack "Typsetting music with PMX -- version 2.6" that >I am not supposed to put the code for a dynamic mark in front of a >note.
