You have texlua if you have luatex. It's the same program, but what it does depends on the name by which it is called. If you call it as texlua, it's just a slightly customized Lua interpreter. > PMX 2.603 than ran fine on Sanctus-Q2. > > But when I next ran etex on the resulting Sanctus-Q2.tex, I got > > ! sorry, musixuad must be input before musixlyr. > l.48 ...y, musixuad must be input before musixlyr} > It is needed for Hermann's huge score but not for the extracted ones.

Have I missed an upgrade? extract.lua can deal with any number of voices even if M-Tx can't :-) But anyway it's trivial. In globals.pas, omitting the quaint comments on 64K data segments: const PMXlinelength = 128; lines_in_paragraph = 100; max_words = 128; max_notes = 128; max_bars = 16; maxstaves = 15; maxvoices = 15; maxgroups = 3; standardPMXvoices = 12; Just change the ones you need and recompile. Of course, you need a PMX that can handle it, which is not the one documented in pmxdoc.pdf.

Re: [Tex-music] [ANNOUNCE] extract.lua: Making parts of a M-Tx score
Here a test drive report. The really good news is that on my somewhat aging Windows XT SP2 system, straight out of the box I got the script to run and extract parts. (I'm a little puzzled why it ran at all since I've never knowingly installed any Lua interpreter). PMX 2.603 than ran fine on Sanctus-Q2. But when I next ran etex on the resulting Sanctus-Q2.tex, I got ! sorry, musixuad must be input before musixlyr. l.48 ...y, musixuad must be input before musixlyr} After commenting out the two lines % \input musixadd % \input musixuad etex and dvips ran OK, but produced a .ps with one system on the 1st page at the bottom, 1 on the second at the top, and two on the 3rd, and 3 on the 4th. I had used these options with dvips: dvips -O0.25in,-0.22in Sanctus-Q2 Adding -ta4 didn't help the pagination. The musixadd issue is probably related (in a way I haven't worked out in detail) to assumptions I made in PMX 2.603, namely that it would always use MusiXteX 1.15 or better, and therefore never require musixadd, musixmad, or musixuad. Bad news is that I couldn't get prepmx to process Sanctus.mtx at all. It complains ==> This is M-Tx 0.60d (Music from TeXt) <11 October 2008> ==>> Input from file Sanctus.mtx Writing to Sanctus.pmx Too many groups: ERROR on line 5 When Hermann first started this thread, I wondered whether M-Tx could deal with so many voices, and I'm still wondering.
