[TeX-music] bug in mtx?
hi Dirk when MTXing the following code ---snip--- oneline: Voices B; Clefs F; Style: oneline Meter: m8/2/0/0 d0 c || f d c9 || a0+ d- c9 || e0 d c9 || a0 d c9 || ---snap--- additional bar lines are inserted in the middle of all bars except in the first. This not a severe problem as starting with m4/2/0/0 and changing meter after the first bar solves it. However, it might point to a bug which could cause more difficults in other cases? regards Bernhard ___ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

You are getting exactly what you ask. Maybe not what you think you ask. || is not a bar line, it is a visual separator. It can appear in the middle of a bar, and the way you have coded this excerpt, in the middle of the bar is just where it appears every time. What you want is probably Meter: 0/2 Dirk ___ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

What you want is probably Meter: 0/2 Thank you Dirk, I missed some finer details of mtx/pmx meter/bar line encoding. Your answer tells me two things: a) MTX does not see a pickup in my example since '||' is not recognised as bar line (am I right?) and b) that bars of length brevis should be noted 0/2 and not 8/2. The PMX manual has indeed a section on bars with n/1, but what is the aim of that feature? Where's the difference? regards Bernhard ___ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

Bernhard Lang skryf: a) MTX does not see a pickup in my example since '||' is not recognised as bar line (am I right?) Indeed. You could code d0 c | || f d c9 which will recognize the pickup but print a double bar line. b) that bars of length brevis should be noted 0/2 and not 8/2. Not quite. 8/2 is fully legal. 0/2 is the M-Tx abbreviation for treat the whole input line as one big bar, but check that it contains an integer number of half-notes. In the manual it is (somewhat misleadingly) called barless music. Dirk ___ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
