Aloha,

Regarding my former question:

Andre Van Ryckeghem [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] suggested in a private e-mail:

Both solutions work, but the former has the disadvantage that the '='
sign is squashed against the quarter note (because of the non-spacing).

The latter solution causes two warnings from M-Tx:

    Note under beam has length 1/4 or more: WARNING on line 10
    @+4 g8 | g4 g4 g4 g4 | [ ( g8
    Note under beam has length 1/4 or more: WARNING on line 10
    @+4 g8 | g4 g4 g4 g4 | [ ( g8 f8 ) ] [ ( g8

but the output looks fine.

Thank you all.

Left to themselves, things tend to go from bad to worse.
