Just to show how ugly this dot-moving problem is, here an example produced by 
the code in its current state. 3 out of 4 isn’t bad, right?

Subject: Re: [Tex-music] PMX : moving dots

 

I’m still working to correct this bug. It’s proving to be insanely complicated, 
due in part to the complex and different ways I had originally set up PMX to 
store information about shifted dots on main notes and chord notes. I have so 
far managed to fix Dieter’s case (the last chord in his example below). But in 
a closely related, very specific case, my fix breaks down, namely if you don’t 
move the dot on the B but do move the one on the C. My question for the group 
is this: Can you think of any real situation where you ever would want to do 
that? I.e., a case where you have a dotted 2-note chord with an interval of a 
second, and you want to move the dot on the right-most note from its default 
position, but leave the dot on the left-most note in its default position 
(where the dot will probably crash into the other note head)? It would save me 
some more hair-pulling if I didn’t have to worry about this very particular and 
very unlikely case.
