I made that file by highlighting and copying the text from an Acrobat screen view of the M-Tx manual, pasting into WinVi, and saving as I normally do. The first character of the file is Hex54 (T) as expected. I haven't tried a hand-made file but I'm 99% sure I'd get the same result. I thought the problem might possibly be that the binary executable might be incompatible with the 64-bit Windows OS. ------------------------------- [email protected] mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
