MusiXTeX supplies the spare parts, PMX services the car. The idea of pmx.tex (and mtx.tex for that matter) is that we figure out laboriously how to get the desired effect in MusiXTeX, put a layer of abstraction over it, and then we can forget for the next 20 years (fortunately Bob is very conservative and almost never perpetrates a breaking change) the details of how we did it. -- Dirk ------------------------------- [email protected] mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to https://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
