Yes: Yikes!!! How could you have survived so long without changing clefs? You can do it anywhere, anytime, to any clef, with the "C" command. --Don Simons ___ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

I didn't do the fine editing, and this does expose some "issues" with the postscript slurs.

On Saturday i can have it. I do not see why you should not fit a piece on two pages in pmx, if you can do it in musixtex. You also may have a look at Beethoven's allegro molto ( the 4 hands part and also ie. piano 1, with 8 systems on a page) I know what large job you did and i admire it veru much. The last sheet i did on musixtex was Laudate Domininum (Mozart), then Werner Icking convinced me to pmx, my production of sheets is now 1000 times faster (or is it 100 times?), and a little bit more accurate, because i can listen to the midifiles.

In that case, I write:
\rlap{\sk\isluru0j}\Dqbl{_k}j
Thus, the slur starts at the position of the "j", not one \noteskip
after.

Correct.

BTW: personally I prefer to distinguish the slurs (which mean "legato")
and the ties (which mean "not repeated").
Therefore, if it is a tie (likely when looking at your code), I would
replace "\isluru0j" by "\itenu0j" (with the same \rlap) and the
"\tslur0j" by "\tten0".

Has anybody a couple of hours to waste for a test, to convince me
how PMX is more efficient than MusiXTeX ?
Just typeset the first two pages of Dussek's sonata op.35#3, present
on our Archive, so that it still fits on only *two* pages.
(The MusiXTeX source is also available)

Nevertheless, it would be a very welcome addition to MusixTeX and I do hope Daniel goes ahead and implements it. I don't use the preprocessors as it just isn't feasible to typeset complex classical guitar scores with them; you have to add so much inline TeX that the advantages of faster coding are cancelled out. Please, Daniel, go ahead and do it, using whichever option you prefer. The effort *is* worth your time, and the plain-MusixTeXers out there will be grateful. Eva Downloadable guitar edition of J.S.
