Hi Bob,

It works! All the parts come out neatly; thank you for the fix.

Cheers —

Kalvin: It seems the version of f2c used for pmx-2.94 inserted a spurious \r in line 3043 of scor2prt.c. After deleting this and re-building a tarball, it seems to work on your examples.  I've uploaded an archive to WIMA as pmx-2.94a.zip:

    Hi Kalvin.  That changes the diagnosis.  I had assumed from a
    message Don sent me that the problem
    was in the Windows executables in the archive.  But after further
    testing I see that scor2prt in TeXLive
    is similarly broken, at least on Linux, though surprisingly
    scor2prt in MiKTeX seems to be OK.

    So the problem is not in the mingw processing but apparently in
    the f2c conversion from Don's Fortran
    to C source.  I will investigate further.

        Hi Bob,

        I tried building scor2prt from WIMA's copy of pmx-2.94.zip
        (unzip, cd
        down, extract Linux tarball, ./configure, make scor2prt), but
        unfortunately it seems to have the same problem as the
        distribution package:

        [j39m@flaglock6 ~/Downloads/tmp]
        $ ~/.local/bin/scor2prt-2.94 ./klaus.pmx
          This is scor2prt for PMX 2.74, 19 February 2016

        $

        Now that I re-read your reply, I get the sense that you're
        talking about
        TeX on Windows; I'm running Fedora 33, so I don't interact
        with those.

        Thank you for looking into the issue!
