Sorry, it is surprising to me that you get any problem when you add that line. 
When I do it, PMX does exactly what I expect and what is intended, namely, 
squeeze all the notes a little closer together so the new notes fit just fine 
at the end of the single line you legislated.

 

To compile, are you running the sequence pmxab => etex => musixflx => etex => 
dvips ?

 

Are you deleting *.mx1 before you recompile?

linebreaks till the very end" philosophy

Indeed. Now, suppose I want to append the following line to your code :

a a a a b b b b  /

If I just do that, the final notes will unsurprisingly start to move off the 
score, so I must tell
PMX somehow to break a line there. My first idea was to change nsyst and set it 
to 2, but this produced
a strange output with three lines, the second line being void of notes and the 
third line containing notes outside
a staff. What would be the correct procedure here ?
