[Tex-music] Mysterious Line Number Eight

2011-07-01 Thread Philipp Neukel
Hello,

I have a problem with PMX: After successfully compiling PMX 2613 and installing 
it, it messes up with my sources: It adds a Line (which is ALWAYS Number Eight) 
to the Tex File:

$ \setmaxslurs{24}\setmaxinstruments{24}%

my PMX preamble looks like this:

$$$ 

3 2 4 4 0 6 .25 -4
0 6 16 .2
%
Pianoforte
Clarinetto in Si\ppff b
%
btt
./
Apr
h270m
w190m
\\input musixger\
\\setsign2{-2}\
%

$$$

I would not mind this beautiful line, if it was of any good. But kills my TeX. 
What is triggering it, why does it kill TeX (MusixTeX 1.15), how can I avoid 
this line or/and its consequences?

Thanks,
Philipp

That's a line I added in PMX 2.6+ specifically to work with MusiXTeX 1.15.
It fails with earlier versions of musixtex. I assume by killing your
compilation you mean that when you remove the line from the TeX file it then
works OK. That behavior is consistent with not having properly upgraded to
MusiXTeX 1.15. Please check your system to be sure there aren't any stray,
older copies of musixtex.tex lurking somewhere higher up in the TeX search
path, including your working directory. If that doesn't do it, please report
back.

Thanks to Christian for adding the .zip files to the webalizer. Now, with
help from the filtering capabilities of Excel, I can quickly whittle down
the list of 100K+ files to just the 202 .zip's in the software directory or
below.

When I do that, a VERY curious result appears: I haven't checked for sure,
but it looks like every single file in the archive has been downloaded at
least once, including of course many that are not linked from any of the web
pages. Any good ideas how or why that could happen? What exactly counts as a
download in these stats?

BTW, there were only 11 such files with 1 download (in ~4 days), with
musixtex.zip leading at 14, and musixflx.pkg.zip and pmx2613.zip tied for
2nd at 5. Curiously, the 3 bitmapped musixtex font files were each
downloaded twice; I would have assumed those were completely obsolete.

I have noticed that for some files the folder structure is altered. For

Is this of any concern?

 I doubt that, because practically all of these files were originally
 uploaded before you started including the .zip's in the count. I check some
 more to see if it really does include all of the files.

far more likely it's a crawler signal (there are masses of them, and
they skew the stats of the tex faq something rotten).
