[TeX-Music] Help! (MTX and MusixTex)
Hello everybody,
I am in big troubles with a MTX file which has given me tons of
problems. In the position of some octave shifts it kept on saying me
pitch too high (and I was inside the lines of the voice), so I said
I'll keep it one octave lower and I will correct it later in PMX.
But now also the tex compiling gives me a lot of problems (in other
measures) and I really don't know how to manage it.
I'd need to know if somebody has 5 free minutes today in the
afternoon, because I have a rehersal tonight of this piece I am
editing now. I can paste you here the fundamental lines of the
logfile, but if somebody has a moment and could contact me I could
send him the original pmx file so he can take a look around... In
change I offer perpetual friendship and rivers of beer in the first
time my saviour will come to Milan, Italy.
Thanks a lot to everybody.
Carlo

[TeX-Music] Sorry/Solved(?) (was: Help! (MTX and MusixTex))
Hello all, sorry, but as far as I know it was not possible to post attachments on this ML (maybe I'm wrong, anyway), this was why I pasted the logfile. While a great colleague called Andreas Sesterhenn is at work on my MTX file (which I still cannot make work) I have solved the tex problem which was due to the missing octave jumps (melody was getting too low and so TeX was having problems). Fighting with PMX I got a file which is far from being of but at least could fit for tonight's rehersal... Any suggestions is welcome, anyway! Thanks to everybody. CArlo 2008/4/7, Cornelius C.

Re: [TeX-Music] M-Tx-PMX-Problem
Hello Hermann,
Are you aware of the M-Tx warning messages Possible unterminated
TeX literal?
They are caused by '\chu {-2}\ ' and '\chl {-2}\ ' in your mtx file.
You should remove surplus whitespace like '\chu{-2}\ ', etc.
Now I'm trying to modify PMX with nm=13, using g77 compiler of MinGW5.
Best regards,

About a fortnight ago I got the valuable help from Don, Christian, and
Hiroaki
concerning my project typesetting a psalm with 12 voices and B.C. Everthing
went well up to the last 2 bars, where I got an error.
What I did: modifying pmxab (version 2.504) by increasing the number of
staves
to 13 (setting nm=13), compiling by f2c and gcc, including musixuad.tex into
mtx.tex before musixlyr.tex, using etex.
The psalm consists of 108 bars. Without the last 2 bars the error disappears
and I got what I wanted. The error message of pmxab including the last bars
is:
ERROR in line 2771, bar 109 This character is not allowed here
v
c93 c9
^
ASCII code: 16
There is no evidence that this character is at this place.
Then I splitted the psalm into 2 parts, which could be processed without any
error. By this I think that the syntax is ok.
Although the mtx-file is about 46 kbytes I append it to this mail. Perhaps
this problem might be of larger interest.

I got these messages in previous versions of my text, but not in the text
which I sent to the list. So I am surprised about your message. Do you use
M-Tx 0.60c?

But now also the tex compiling gives me a lot of problems (in other measures) and I really don't know how to manage it. I also do that. It is a bad habit, but so is drinking too much coffee. The following hint may help you to minimize the negative effects of this bad habit. In the M-Tx source, use e.g. c= every so often to make sure you are in the desired octave relative to the default octave. Then the wrong octaves do not get a chance to run wild. If you only use + and -, it is very easy to lose track of where you are, particularly if you build chords with z instead of C:.
