The problem is a "conflict" between two ideas:
- For MusixTex, the "G8" clef is a variant of the treble clef, a symbol
- For singers (and for musicians), that clef is a real clef, with
pitches between alto (C3) and tenor (C4) clefs.
For a typesetting system like PMX (and for MusixTex, also), it must be a
real clef, thus one can enter the notes in its real octave, and the
system typeset them correctly. But as PMX depends on MusixTeX, there is
a double task: read the source file in the correct pitch, thinking the
G8 clef is a real clef, but typeset the staff as if it would be an
octave higher.
