[TeX-music] pmx broken tie, end of 1st segment

2003-10-21 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem
This is perhaps not worth to mention it, but is it possible to have a
default minimum length of the 1st segment of a broken postscript slur (as it
is at the start of the second segment)?
(i can work around this problem by changing all the first of two 'st' by
'sts+0+1')

This is an example (see last tie):
=
1 1  2  4  0  0  0  0
1 420   .0

In the canons, I used it as follow (you must have only 2 command lines here)
For the easiest way I copied dviconcat.exe between the .DVI files (perhaps
you can adapt the PATH in Dos also) and also the .bat file that has the
commands. The full bat file is at the Icking site

Dear friends,

some  time  ago,  someone  on  this  list  sent  me  the DOS binary of
dviconca.exe along with instructions for use to the following effect:

dviconca -o outputfile infile1 infile2 infile3

I've  been  trying this without useful results; all I get is DVI files
of  size 0 bytes, or an output file containing nothing but infile1, or
ten-megabyte  monstrosities  (from  two  20k  input  files)  which YAP
refuses to open. Can anyone tell me what's going wrong here?

TIA

[TeX-music] pmx - Altering the hight of 'Ti' data in scor2prt

2003-10-09 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem
Dear all,

When making a scor2prt out of a 3 staff piece, the the Violine part (the
upper) is perfect, but on the other two the intrumentnames (ie. Viola)
collide with text above the staff.
By experimenting on it i found that the hight above the staff of 'Viola'
depends on the number of staffs.

Here is my question: how can i put the word 'Viola' higher, without editing
the output of scor2prt?
I made a stripped version of a scor2prt file:

Re: [TeX-music] Daniel Taupin

2003-09-07 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem
I want to participate in the grief in the passing away of Daniël Taupin.

I almost met Daniël at the TUG days in Holland, a few years ago. At last moment i was 
prevented, but
a colleague has met him there and reported me all details.

My first mail to Daniël was propably 10 years ago. I tought i found an error in 
musixtex.tex. I was
afraid to mentioned it and asked him how to solve a problem i had. I am sure everyone 
knows his
answer: read the manual, what i did and it was all there. Anyway it helped me to 
understand
musixtex.
It happens i posed a problem and a few hours later i saw appear a new version of 
musixtex with the
adaptions. It was so fast, i doubted if it was a reaction on may mail or if it was a 
coincidence he
just did an update.

Daniël Taupin is one of the unbelievable smart minds in making a music typing programm 
dat handles
all exceptions. Even Donald E. Knuth honored him with a link to musixtex.

It is very easy to work with it because of the tweak possibilities.
I tried a sharp on the upper note of the last chord, with stem down. It collapsed a 
little bit with
the b.
then i tweaked 3 accidentals.
This is the way it should go?

It is amazing how easy it is to make the broken slurs with the right shape.

For most of the flatten slurs it is simpy sf...sf and if they collaps, using 
something as
suf+7s+3s+2...s+7.

If i understand well the vertical offsets of the broken slurs are relative to the 
start of the slur
(suf+7s+3s+2 and not suf+7s+10s+9).

Thank you very much Don for this amazing feature that fasten up a lot the typing of 
music.

[TeX-music] pmx - Flatten the first part of a continuation slur (again)

2003-07-24 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem
Hello,

When using lyrics and 'sf', and placing many systems on 1 page it would be nice to 
flatten the 1st
part of a broken slur.
I searched pmx.tex, musixps.tex and musixtex.tex for a parameter that does the job, 
but i did not
found how the end point of the first slur is defined.

This example is better than my previous one, because here i have to find only the last 
bar on the
first line of the broken slur. This is not hard if the layout of the piece is made 
already.

But still it is a clumsy one, it would be so nice if it could happen automatically 
(magically).

Re: [TeX-music] pmx - Flatten the first part of a continuation slur

2003-07-19 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem
Thanks for your reaction.

 If you think about it a bit, there is no way for the line breaking 
 algorithm to know which shape should be used for the first part of the 
 slur. The shape is defined when closing the slur.
 
 Therefore, the only (a bit dirty) solution is to break the slur manually 
 - close it just before the fixed line break and open another one at the 
 beginning of the next line.

I guess \breakslur creates an endslur, so this one could be flattend?

I tried in line TeX, i found that the pmx-slur is highest,
the in line breakslur a little lower and the breakslur with the 'sf' feature is the 
lowest
(in the 3th case the slur must be restarted):


---

 the new version 2.1b of musixlyr is now available from the Icking
 Archive software page,
 http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk/software/indexmt6.html.
 
 The one-and-only new feature is the correction of a bug recently
 reported by Simon Dreher: At line beginnings, lyrics have been
 horizontally misaligned sometimes; they've appeared a bit right-shifted
 out of their default position, centered around the notehead. Now they
 are centered, no matter how far they extend into the leftward header
 space of the staff.
 
 Those of you who have never suffered from this problem don't need to
 use this version.

\\\settrebleclefsymbol{2}\treblelowoct\
or
\\\setclefsymbol2\treblelowoct\

the tenor clef is nice at the beginning of a system, but not in the middle of it (by 
using Ct in
pmx)

I tried musixtex (\setclef2\treble), but then the the notes are 2 octaves higher than 
in pmx

Of course, i can put an '8' everywhere with a D8 command, but i like to know if the 
clefsymbol can
be redefined for 'Ct'

Thanks again
Andre

Re: [TeX-music] changing clef from bass to tenor in pmx

2003-04-02 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem
Again, i am astonished how fast and efficient this problem is solved by Don.

I used it in an SATB (with Solo's) piece of 250 bars. I had no trouble to switch back 
the clef,
probably because i use a lot of  
\\\resetclefsymbols\  and   \\\settrebleclefsymbol{2}\treblelowoct\
commands by changing the number of staffs.

Thanks again

[TeX-music] pmx - midi, repeats and sharps

2003-03-07 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem
In this example, in the last line of code the e sounds as an e sharp (mesure 3 and 5)

when i replace the lines
e4 r r /
by
e4ni r r /
then the midi sound as it should

Even on the repeat, when the midi jumps from m. 1 to 3 it sounds as e-sharp.

Of course it is easy to correct, but perhaps it is related with the slur-and-midi 
problem.

Thanks for looking at it

Re: [TeX-music] pmx - augmenting the number of instruments - equal spaces

 all goes well except, when changing from 2 to 4 instruments, the lyrics of the two

When changing from 2 to 4 instruments, if i do in pmx a

\\\spread{-30}\

on the last system with 2 instruments, then the spacing is nice and equal over all 
systems. The
larger the number (i toke 30) the better.

It is not necessary to edit the TeX source.

 However, musixlyr wants to attach the second system's words to the
 lower voice of the Soprano staff, which is all blank whole-measure
 rests.  I can switch the notes of the Soprano's top voice with the
 rests of its lower voice, but I am wondering if there is another way to
 communicate to musixlyr that it should use the top voice of the Soprano
 staff to attach lyrics.  file3.pmx contains all these changes.  I have

\\\assignlyrics{2}{verse1a}\lyrmodealter2\

 I tried to typeset a score with PMX, which has a slur
 beginning before two voltas and ending in _both_ of them,
 but I had no success. The second closing of the slur
 opens up a new one instead.
 
 The PMX-code looks like this:
 
 a c (1 e | V1 a )1 b c Rr | Vb2 a )1 b c Rl | Vx a b c /
 
 I tried the 's'-symbol for slurs, too (same effect)
 
 This feature seems not to be implemented yet, am I right?
 Is there any chance for me to get the desired behaviour?
 
 kind regards

 PS: 
 the MIDI-file generation algo doesn't cope with the
 voltas, too (IMO)

Subject: [TeX-music] Grouping notes within the same beam


Dear friends,

I'm trying to typeset a semiquaver sextuplet figure in two groups of
three notes, with the lower of the two beams interrupted between note
stems three and four.

This is no problem in the case of a straightforward upper or lower
beam, as in the following:

\startextract
\notes\Ibbu0hn6\qb0{=i}\hqsk\qb0{^f}\tbbu0%
\qb0g\nbbu0\qb0i\qb0l\tqh0n\en
\endextract

However, when the beam starts out as a lower beam and terminates as an
upper beam, the results are unfortunate:

\startextract
\notes\ibbl0l6\qb0p%
\hqsk\islurd1K\qb0{^K}\tslur1L\tbbu0\qb0L\nbbu0%
\qb0b\qb0d\tqh0g\en
\endextract

Can anyone suggest a workaround that forces the *lower* of the two
beams to be interrupted in this example?

Thanks in advance

[TeX-music] did not know Finale was for free

2003-01-06 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem
I bought it because it could make notes from midi (it did so, but i could do nothing 
with the midi
but listening to it).
I could not manage to have a page layout, it went all on 1 line.
I could not make an upbeat on the 1st mesure.
It was tedious to place text on the notes.
The only thing i could do was running the examples (in Musixtex, if i can run the 
examples, i know
enough to start edit the music).

I got help by a friend, but he found a nice pagelayout not important and so on.

I did not much effort to learn it, because the output is inferior to Musixtex.

I see music sheets made by Finale  with only 1 musicline on the last page, with no 
slurs on the
notes and so on and if there are errors on it (this one is no exclusivity for Finale 
users) they
usually are corrected with a pencil.

Andre
But i realise there are mouse minded (and younger?) people who prefer wisywig editors.

I'm with you, Andre. I tried Finale once and hated it. Half of the
gradient of the learning curve involved in mastering it seemed to
result from the programmers' insistence on flouting every single
Windows convention they could find (like which functions to put in
which menu, like allowing one to delete things by selecting with the
mouse and hitting the Delete key) and on burying basic, frequently
needed functions five levels deep in the menu hierarchy and making the
user wade through reams of PDF documentation to find out where exactly
they'd put them.

I took one look and decided that if I was going to be facing a steep
learning curve anyway, I'd just as soon have a learning curve that
wasn't 50% due to poor design, and I'd just as soon not pay for the
privilege! The rest, more or less, is history...

 with the soprano or with the alto voice.

 I'll attach here my DVI output and the .tex and .log files so that you
 can compare software versions and possible other differences, in order
 to analyze what goes wrong.

 Best regards,

Re: [TeX-music] pmx - how to work with Ap - more questions

2002-11-21 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

 http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk/software/pmx/

Thanks for the information, i should have found this myself.

 As for the slur problem
So I guess I really
 ought to deal with this.

1.
On the first part of the breaking if the slur is in the lower part of the staff he 
(she?) goes down
a little bit.
On the upper part he goes up.
Has this a reason?

2.
I experimented with  s...s slurs (not st..st). In my example, setting the width to 
w23m, i noticed
that the shortest (ful) slur is one notehead long.
Is it possible to redifine a short continuation slur to such one (a full slur at the 
start of a
line)?
But it seems they cannot be lowerd, see adapted example (s1l(ow) and s1-3 does not 
work). I ran it
as is, and also edited with s1l or s1-3 .

3.
In older pieces i used a lot of tt...tt ties . Now the tt's are no more possible, is 
this wanted?

4.
I tried also
\\input musixpss.tex\
there the continuation slurs are normal slurs with thin ends on both sides and a bold 
middle.

Re: [TeX-music] pmx - how to work with Ap

2002-11-20 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem
Thank you  very much for helping, Olivier and Christian, but

I downloaded Don's pmx2407.zip.
In the pmxbeta.html it is mentioned that a new pmx.tex is needed in pmx2406, i did not 
found that
one. I tried pmx240.tex (with pmx2407.exe) but i see no improvement in using Apl.

Yes, adding a space helps, but the drawback here is, when the code is changed 
elsewhere (and the new
line is taken on an other place) the X1.5 is no more needed (and will propably not be 
removed).

thanks again
Andre

for the code ( the slope adapted a mentioned Don with +4, for not disturbing to muxh 
the midi)
and for making the midi better:
r8x3 c s1 e [u-2+4 ax3nf3-1 \tbu2\ cD s1 ] r4 /
The last 'cD' sounds to long, but this is hardly to hear on a piano. In any case the 
synchronising
of the 2 hands is right.

 You could get the beam angle a little better on the altered group with

 Also, note that in this special case there was no need to save and restore

  Producing a score that looks fine and producing a sound file that sounds
  fine are very different tasks. The main task of PMX is the first one:
  producing handily a beautiful score. The midi files produced by PMX are
  essentially useful to detect the eventual errors in the score by hearing.
 
  So, I think you have to decide which aspect you want to privilege :
  1) the quality of the score (what realises the measure 1)
  2) or the quality of the sound file (what realises the measure 2)
 
  In fact, PMX serves the first task and not the second one. The better
  solution is to use it for producing good score and to use another
  program to
  modificate manually the midi file got with PMX.
 
  Here is my proposition for your example:

 As I said, there is a solution; it just is not automatic
 and thus labor-intensive. I have used musixpss but did not dare
 to use it for the Kunst der Fuge. Die Kunst der Fuge has several
 thousand ties and maybe 50 slurs and I do not know how well
 musixpss would handle such a large number. I considered to reduce
 the number of ties by using dotted notes. However, Bach wrote his
 music this way and when playing I see the reason why he did so.

[TeX-music] Pmx-MusixTeX: instruments with no coherent bar division

2002-10-10 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

I want bar and meterchanges in random staffs.

The \Showbarrule (with \changecontext)  repeats the meterchange on every staff, which 
i don't want.

In this example there is a meterchange on a single bar at synchronised barlines and 
also one within
a bar. I made this by trial and error, using TeX commands, but i am sure there is a 
better way to do
this.

I will be grateful for any hint on this.

 Dear all:
 
 I work on improving older typesets. Because the
 Kneifl-type (pmx: Ap) ties look much better and cause less interference
 with notes or beams, I chose them. However, they have a setback;
 If the notes to be tied are close, the tie gets reduced
 to an almost invisible little hook. If a line break separates
 the tie, the end of the tie is also nearly invisible. Of course,
 there is a remedy: simply convert those ties to slurs which come
 out too short. This turned out in some cases to be
 a lot of repair and I wonder whether it is possible to
 introduce a lower bound into the tie length-calculating algorithm.

Re: Fingering in PMX (was RE: [TeX-music] fingering in MusiXTeX ?)

2002-09-08 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

1
In piano pieces there are rarely fingernumbers left of the notes. Even with cords, 
they are stacked
above or beneath the chord. If they are between the notes, then the music becomes less 
readable.

2
I (always) use an 8 pt (postscript)font

3
... and stacked digits (hight ref on lower digit if above the chord, ...)?

4
I understand the advantage of using the accidental method is that the fingers are 
placed
automatically. If they collide with the accidentals, are they placed then after the 
notes?

Also the o command algorithm puts the symbols nicely above the staff or above the 
notes (but not the
notes with a (shorted) stem above a staff.


But i am an amateur, i follow the ideas of the professionals

Something else: it would be nice if the D-command in pmx that start with a figure 
should have a tiny

simular thing as
Dp Dmp .. they have the \ppff font.
Fingercommands then could be something as: D4+3-.2 ...
D\tinyfont \t{45} is to be done at the old way

Re: [TeX-music] experiment on slurs

2002-07-08 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

I am afraid i do not understand yet the slur mechanism (but never dared to confess)
i.e. Ap+t : is the adjustment autmatically (for dotted notes) or is it to allow t+0+1 ?

 Thanks for these comparisons, Andre.
I am happy that i can use pmx (musixtex). I have a great admiration for the programms 
and the
makers.

 I'll only comment about exodusaplt.
 The l option in Apl+t only alters the line-breaking ties, while +t
 affects all ties; neither one affects slurs at all.

the l and +t option can not be used together?


The tie at bar 44 looks
 fine to me.

the tie at the soprano is half a note lower than in the two other ps files (is the 
difference
between tie and slur that
the tie start right and ends left of the note?)

With some more work I could make l apply to slurs as well.
 It looks like line-break slurs would also benefit by having the 2nd part
 start further to the left than the default.  Unfortunately, I would also
 need to work out an algorithm for the height of the beginning of the 2nd
 part as well; this was a no-brainer for ties since they always end at the
 same height they start. Would you or anyone else care to suggest an
 algorithm for the height of the second part of a line-break slur?

perhaps let them be horizontal (as is the first part), then the height is given by the 
end of the
slur (and easy to change by the user)


 The bow of the slurs can be lessened with the f option. If you use that in
 the tenor in bars 33-34, you may cause a crash with the tie.  Then you
 should tweak the height of the tie.  But now you may not be able to get it
 exactly where you want it (down by 1\internote) because using Ap+t may not
 allow it.  That's exactly why I made \Notieadjust (Ap-t) the default in PMX.

I believe the bow of the tie is 2 internotes and this can not be less ? But yes, i 
forgot to use the
f option (f stands for flatter, h for higher and H for more higher an HH ...?)

I feel i have no right to nitpick (searched this word in a dictonary).
I waited long for slanted hairpins, and now we have them together with slurs that have 
a large, nice
vertical range.

[TeX-music] experiment on slurs

2002-07-07 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

I did an experiment on the slurs on my latest sheet exodus. The results are in

users.pandora.be

in  3 postscriptfiles
See the second page (numbered as 3) mesure 32, 33 and 44

Sorry if i did not understood the new options and used them wrong.


exodusorg.ps - with no options
The slurs are nice and break well. The bow is rather high.

exodusaplt.ps - option Apl+t
The slurs are nice but do not break that well (mesure 44). The bow is even more high.

exoduspss.ps - option \\input musixpss\relax\
The slurs are a little thin (for me), but acceptable, they break nicely. They are very 
flat (33),
which is for me an advantage.
Perhaps a drawback is that they produces many files, with no easy method to delete 
them in a
command.

 Thank you.  This is wonderful.
 
  By the way: You can skip over notes within \setlyrics even with a simple
  '~' instead of \empty{}, which makes writing and reading your score
  somewhat easier.
 
 I will put this to use also.  Thanks again for taking the time to work

Re: [TeX-music] pmx - the wonderful D option

2002-04-17 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

This are a few thing i use, propably there are better ways, but this use the
pmx commands (i think).

Don had asked for suggestions, here they are:

- it would be nice if the D could be flipped above the staffs, something as
at the trios
- i do not know how to globally change the fonts on text in the D command,
ie for making fingerprints.
Perhaps things as D1, D45 (D starting with a figure) without the  and in a
footnotesize (as Df is in ppff font).


  * Printing revisions, copyright information, dates, etc at the bottom or
top of each page.

this can be done in a footnote, see the many examples on the icking site

  * Using more than one line for titles (Tt, Tc).

an other option beside \\  is using

  * Globally redefine PMX fonts (i use \smalltype in Tc).

i do not know how to do this, but i prefer a font ie in a command the can be
adapted


  * Positioning segno and coda symbols (i use \loffset and \roffset).

I us the pmx D, ie 'D\segno+15-10' see example

  * Positioning text like Solo ad lib and D. C. al Coda (i use
\loffset, \roffset and \zchar).

D again (Don has created here a small command with big power). If the text
is to long use a text command (see example)

  * Using note symbols (segno, coda, quarter note) in dacapo and metronome
directions.

D command see metron in example

Re: [TeX-music] from ps - pdf - eps with adobe illustrator

2002-03-12 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

Thanks to everyone for responding

Indeed the mass on the site is with a bitmap fonts, but i had used the new
ps fonts for the printing office, as my more recent pdf files on the site
use postscript fonts.

In the printing office they extract the eps from pdf .

The problem is that the fonts are substituted by other characterfonts while
loading an eps file (1 page) in illustrator.
I tried to put the musixps pfb fonts in the mac, but they are not
recognised.

The 'contours' define the surroundings of the character (note). One can move
a single char (note) in illustrator. I don't know the English word
(people here have the bad habit of translating in Flemish) but the command
on illustrator is Ctrl+Shift+O for making them.

The layouter in the printoffice demonstrated an other example, from a person
from the USA from a windows pc, that he was able to handle.

I cannot work with the adobe programs, i thought once a mac is installed
with the musixps fonts, it should work.

On the other hand  it is possible to print a pdf file from a pc on a mac
with or without ps fonts, it only can not be changed

Perhaps people are working on musixtex on a mac with ps fonts?

[TeX-music] from ps - pdf - eps with adobe illustrator

2002-03-11 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

Hi all,

I was been asked by a printing office that was willing to layout the
Mechelaere mass (see icking site) for a pdf file, but:

The person works with Mac and wants my pdf file to edit with illustrator for
making small corrections.
He wants the fonts with 'character contours'.

The best thing i can do is making the pdf with destiller, but then the
musicnote fonts are substituted by character fonts in illustrator.

Is there anybody who is willing to help me for the choice of the fonts,
installing them  and the procedure to make the 1 page eps files (for making
caterns)?

Or point me to a place where i can learn this?


Thank you very much

Hello everyone,

among the feedback I've been getting for the BWV995 edition now
available in the Archive have been the now-familiar reports that
Acrobat 4 doesn't display the ties.

What was news to me is that apparently there can be problems with
GSView as well. Somebody running GSView 4.0 and GS 7.0 on Win98SE
reported that the dotted slur in bar 20 of Gavotte II was missing when
viewed in GSView. The analogous one near the beginning of the movement
was there, though.

I would have expected any problem to affect either both slurs or
neither -- the second one, in the MusiXTeX source is a cutpaste job
of the first. But that's what this person said he was getting.

I have GSView 3.3 and GS 6.01, and both the slurs are OK when I load
the file. But then, so are the ties when viewed in Acrobat 4 on my
machine...

Subject: [TeX-music] problem with xtuplets in pmx


 I have 2 problems in writing xtuplets in pmx, which may or may not
 be related.

 Look at the following example:

 %
 % nv,noinst,mtrnuml,mtrdenl,mtrnump,mtrdenp,xmtrnum0,isig,  %
   11  2   42  40  0 %
 %   %

 ./  %
 %   %
(t f2/% bar 1%
f2x3n+2f f ) af  /% bar 2%
e2   /% bar 3%
 %
 %

   (i) Obviously, I would rather have a halfnote f in bar 2
   instead of the two quarternote f's; but I don't know how to
   do that. The pmx manual says that it is possible to have
   notes of different duration in xtuplets, but doesn't
   tell you how to code that,
  (ii) once that is done, I would like the tie to extend from the
   halfnote f in bar 1 to the halfnote f in bar 2 (i.e. 2/3 of
   the triplet); but since the beginning of the xtuplet
   notation in pmx doesn't allow spaces, I don't know where
   (and how) to place the closing ).

   What seems to look logical, viz.

 (t f2  /
 f22x3n+2 ) af  /
 e2 /

 is severely disliked by pmx.

 Any help anybody? Don??

 Thanks,
 ccn.

 Concerning the slur breaking issue - we have discussed this recently
 with Christian Mondrup. One problem is that previous versions of PMX
 used slurs instead of ties for equally pitched notes. If you correct
 this, you will solve also most of the incorrectly breaked slurs (ties
 are breaked across a line much more often than slurs).
 Secondly, I have chosen the somewhat sloped first part of the breaked
 slur for some reasons:
 - at the time of the break you can not know (in TeX, not in PMX)
 anything about the ending pitch of the slur,
 - to minimize the number of cases where the collision between slur and
 the notes at the end of the line would have to be solved manually,
 - even for a horizontal group it is better to visually emphasize the
 fact that the slur continues to the next system.

 I can add some switch for this, but I personally don't think it is
 really necessary (at least if people will use real ties instead of slurs).

 Best regards,

 Stanislav Kneifl.

 First, I don't believe \nohalfties is being observed, due to PMX syntax
 issues.   Probably would have the desired effect if you remove the space
 before \, but safest to put it on a separate line.

 As to your main point, this looks to me like a bug, with or without
 \nohalfties, and with or without the narrower width.  Stanislav? (It's a
 slur over a line break that ends on a note toward the end of the second
 line).

Re: [TeX-music] MiKTeX MusiXTeX et. al.

2001-12-05 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

I installed the latest MikTeX on windowsxp
and used the readme file (Takanori Uchiyama) from the
musix_ps directory on the http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk/
(mentioned as ZIP)
Takanori Uchiyama gives an example of  batch  file to install


There are (for me) a few things to remember:

1.
Miktex has the type 1 fonts in the distribution

C:\texmf\fonts\type1\bluesky
and
C:\texmf\fonts\type1\public\musixps

I think they propably are to be replaced by new ones.

2.
the ligatures are replaced by a pound sign (in Latex)

3.
the old:
set PATH=c:\musixtex\pmx;c:\musixtex\mtx\prepmx;%path%
in windows98 must be repaced in windowsxp or 2000 by a setting in:

control panel - system - advanced - environment.

(thanks to helpful people on the list)

4.
With the old(er) miktex i was able to install a musixtex.fmt
with musixtex.tex in it (much faster)

the install file musixtex.ins (edited from the distribution) was:

\input musixtex
%\input musixcpt
%\input musixsty
\tracingstats=2\relax
\dump


The initex batch file:

C:\texmf\miktex\BIN\INITEX.EXE plain musixtex.ins
pause
copy musixtex.fmt C:\Local TeXMF\miktex\fmt
del musixtex.fmt


and an example of use (in a batch file):

C:\texmf\miktex\BIN\VIRTEX.EXE musixtex %1.tex


Now it should be possible to use the Miktex wizard

start - programs - MiKTeX - MiKTeX Option

to add a format file

i used these parameters:

compiler=tex
description=musixtex
input=musixtex.ins

but it did not worked out. I added a file '\input plain' in musixtex.ins
but it does not help.

Now i use TeX and edit all my (musix,pmx)files with the line
\input musixtex

 Dear all.

 Today I've had the opportunity to install MiKTeX (v. 2.1) from scratch
 on a win98 pc.

 Hereby I also got the chance to test whether my guidelines for first
 time installation of MusiXTeX software on unix machines (see

http://icking-music-archive.sunsite.dk/software/musixtex/musixtex-for-unix.h
tml)
 apply for MiKTeX as well. This turns out to be generally the case.

 I got the type 1 fonts working for dvipdfm as well by just following the
 installation instructions in the distribution file. And this is actually
 what is important to me. However the installation of the type 1 fonts
 for postscript use can't be done as described in the distribution
 because the file texmf\dvips\config\updmap is a shell script which is
 identic with the one found in the unix TeTeX installations. Such a shell
 script can only be executed on a win9x pc if a bash shell interpreter is
 also installed.

 If any of you can supply a working method for installation of type 1
 fonts for postscript on win9x then it shouldn't be that hard to provide
 a MusiXTeX intallation HOWTO for MiKTeX.

Re: [TeX-music] Printing problems with type-1 fonts

I also have the problem that a slur that continue over 2 lines not show on the first 
line.

an example of this is in the icking site (vocal) in the Kerst-Gloria:

There a slur should start in the soprano voice on the 1st note of mesure 17 and end on 
the 1st note
of mesure 20. In the postscriptfile its ok, but in the pdf the slur only starts on the 
next line.

This pdf file is made by Christian out of a dvi file.

I did it also at home (with: dvipdfm -s 2-5 kerstgloria -- learned from Christian 
Mondrup) with the
same results.


I am viewing the pdfs with acrobat 5 on the screen.

Subject: [TeX-music] Printing problems with type-1 fonts


 I work in Windows98.  I produce a dvi and a ps file running emtex and
 dvips32 in a DOS window.  I use the new type-1 musix fonts.  I think I
 have the most up-to-date versions.

 Normally I make a PDF file from the ps using (Windows) Acrobat Distiller
 4.0, and print from there to a Laserjet 4MV (non-postscript).  However
 in one case I noticed some longer slurs, both horizontal and slanted,
 are not printing properly; both ends are cut off.  Suspecting my
 non-postscript printer, I tried printing from (Windows) Ghostview
 (GSview32 Version 2.7).  Voila, the problem goes away.

 But another problem has arisen in its place.  Using DOS versions of
 dvidvi, dviselec, and dviconca, I make side-by-side images on
 11-by-17-inch (ledger) paper so I can make 8.5-by-11-inch booklets.
 Then I run dvips32 with the -tledger option. The ps looks fine in
 ghostview, showing the side-by-side pages when I menu-select
 Media|Ledger. The problem is that only the left half of the page is
 printed.  I cannot figure out how to get Ghostview to tell the printer
 that it is sending a full ledger sheet. Ghostview uses a non-standard
 interface to the printer that does not give access to the printer
 properties in the normal Windows way; if it did, I'd know exactly what
 to do.

 All these problems go away if I use bitmapped fonts. The font problems
 go away when I use a postscript printer, but I don't have access to one
 that will handle ledger paper.

 So if I abandon the type-1 fonts I have a complete workaround, but I'd
 really like to make this all work with the type-1 fonts, and I'm almost
 there.  Any ideas how to get Windows-Ghostview to print the whole ledger
 sheet?

  Sure it is. The D option has been introduced in PMX 2.3 IIRC;
  there is a UNIX package available for that version.
 
 But the restriction that the last element of an x-tuplet
 cannot be a rest ist still valid?

Re: [TeX-music] Beam across staves and other problems

2001-09-02 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem


 Are you saying pmx 2.331 acts different from some other version when you try
 to shift the treble clef?  Please clarify.

Sorry, my fault, i  thought this version solved the schifting of the treble, i did not 
read the
readme

 I believe you could do all of this more neatly with

 \\let\pmxclefsav\pmxclef\
 \\def\PCLN{\gdef\pmxclef##1##2{\loffset{.8}{\pmxclef##1##2}}\
 \\global\let\pmxclef\pmxclefsav}}\
 ...
 \PCLN\ gn21 o zg+n Ct [u+4+11 f84 zaf zc o^ ]j rb8  Rd //

Yes, with only one command but i had it to change a little bit (accolades, and for one 
obscure
reason i have to define the global\let first:

\\let\pmxclefsav\pmxclef\
\\def\PCLN{\
 \\gdef\pmxclef##1##2{\global\let\pmxclef\pmxclefsav\loffset{.8}{\pmxclef##1##2}}}\


 Comments:
 1. You can't put \PCLN\ right before Ct because--by the rules for type-1
 TeX strings--it wouldn't be activated until just before [u+4+11 f84 ...
 2. You don't need to globalize the definition of \PCLN\ since it's done
 with type-2 strings, which are already global enough. You do need to
 globalize the redefinition of \pmxclef because it doesn't work otherwise :-)
 .  This is a mystery to me.  You may or may not need to globalize the \let
 that restores the original definition...I didn't have the patience to do the
 tests.

 You also replaced the first solid notehead of the triplet with a half note
 by using

  \\let\qbsav\qb\
  \\def\HA{\
  \\def\qb##1##2{\let\qb\qbsav\ha{##2}}}\
  ...
  \HA\ [-1 gnfi42x3 d+ g ] rb2 /

 Again, I just don't think this is good notation. I think you should leave it
 the way you had it before, with two noteheads side-by-side. Aside from that,
 the only reason it works here is that the upstem on the half note happens to
 be *exactly* the right length to end at the beam.

I agree, but its nice that it is possible to do it. In fact, i had to lower the beam ( 
[-1..).


  I think the half g at the triplet is token in pmx (can sing midi
  but one must use the fi in gnfi42x3
  for no dissonants)

 I don't understand this.  First, I don't understand why you need all those
 accidentals in the first place. Is there a key signature that's been omitted
 in the example?  If so, then it must have a g-flat (since you have a
 g-natural on the first beat of the example).  But then it would also need a
 d-flat, and you haven't put naturals on the d's, which would make for some
 rather wierd harmony.

 But more to the point, I don't understand the need for fi.  I never
 intended it to be possible to enter more than one accidental on the same
 note, so if gnfi does anything at all it's just an accident.  But with
 just gn42x3 it sounds OK to me (the g's are naturals), and it sounds
 exactly the same as with the fi.

an error: it must be a gni in stead of a gnfi

Perhaps in the original long version, there are sharps at the key.

about the fi:
I know there was once a mail that explained where the fi's are needed and when not, 
i.e. only once
in a mesure?
I do not find it back in the list emails. I suppose it dont hurt to put plenty of 
fi's

 Dear all,
 
 I'm typesetting a piece with a lot of crescendo lines. Sometime a crescendo
 extends across line breaks. In this case I need break the crescendo in the
 end of the first music line and restart it in the next music line not in
 the normal way (  ) but with the two lines not joint on their beginning.
 Nearly the same happen with decrescendo. I see that Jean-Pierre Coulon use
 this kind of broken crescendo lines in his Favorite salon pieces, vol. 2
 at p. 42 (a very good typesetting!).
 In what way I can do that?
 
 Thanks

Subject: [TeX-music] interstaff  invisible barlines


 Hello everyone!
 
 I am typesetting a piano piece with PMX.
 
 1) I want to have a different vertical space between the 2 staves at each
 system (sometimes on the same page). I tried Ai.9, Ai.5 before the
 corresponding systems, but it didn't work. Then I tried
 \\\atnextline\interstaff{15} but it did not always work. Is there an other
 option to do this?
 
 2) How can I make some (or all) barlines invisible?
 
 Thanks

Re: [TeX-music] Archive of macros, tricks, and tips. How to handle pmx errors

2001-05-30 Thread Andre Van Ryckeghem

I like the idea.

Is this some kind of a contribution?

(What follows is an ode to Don.)

--pmx-errors (examples)--

bad error in fnote
 - you forgot something as m5800, or put it not immediate in the first voice (upper 
voice)

severe (27): too many records in I/O statement, unit -5 File Internal Formatted  Write
 - forgot octadenumber begin block i.e. a4 and not a44
 - or notes are to high or to low on the staff
 - wrong number i.e. AI.3.5

cannot having blank in floating figure
 x1 in stead of X1

problem finding grace index in makeabar
[-32 in stead of [-2

Merged Type-1 TeX-string longer than 128 characters.
h+4- in stead of h+4

runaway arg (in TeX pass)
line too long (more than 80 chars) below h-command

missing number, treated as zero (in TeX pass)
\generalsignature{**} 
- K+0-10 in stead of K+0-1

too many records in I/O statement ...
- forgotten to mention the octave
i.e. f2 instead of f24 at the beginning of the piece.

(tex hangs but pmx is normal)
- notes comes to low or to high i.e. a- must be a+

Subject: [TeX-music] shorthand for repeated sixteenths in pmx ?


 Hello,
 does anyone know whether there is a construct in pmx for writing the
 usual shorthand for repeated eighths/sixteenths ? In musixtex you can
 write
 
  \loffset\{0.5}{\ibu0c9}\roffset{0.5}\tbu0\hu{f}% 4 eights on c
  \loffset\{0.5}{\ibbu0b9}\roffset{0.5}\tbbu0\hu{f}  % 8 sixteenths on c
 
 [this trick was invented by Werner Icking (!); e.g. MusixTeX manual
 p.29].
 
 But pmx, of course, will not accept anything like that as it is.
 
 ccn.
