Re: [Tex-music] MTX file can't add another line
Hi Aki, the problem in your example is the last bar in line 10: It is too short (only 1/2 note in a 4/4 bar). When it is the very last bar, the error isn't shown, as incomplete bars might occur as pickups or in the end of the piece. But when you use the next line, the error gets detected - this is what > Line has 3 bars + 32/64 notes > c4 [ c8 d ] e4 [ e8 f ] | g4 [ a8 g ] e2 | g4 [ f8 e ] d4 [ e8 d ] | c2 | > Line does not end at complete bar: ERROR on line 10 means.

For me, it works perfectly without closing the pdf viewer - under debian Linux, I use okular or xpdf as PDF viewer, under Windows SumatraPDF is a PDF viewer which does not block the files and reloads the file without losing the displayed page :-) If you prefer adobe reader, there are possibilities to send closing and opening commands to the reader - you may search in the web for texniccenter and acrobat or something similar.

Or you could try \rlap{as~it~was~in~the~beginning}, maybe even
\rlap{\llap{as}~it~was~in~the~beginning}. Not tested yet...

[Tex-music] wrong height of brace and shift of rest
Hi,
in the attached piece the square brace grouping the choir is too large.
It seems to have to do something with the different sizes of the staves.
The second problem is the shifted full-bar rest in the top voice in the
first bar. It seems that the vertical shift uses the wrong size.
Best regards
Simon

[Tex-music] Broken text fonts after update of musixtex
Hello,
on my debian system I recently got an update of musixtex from version
1:1.15.ctan20131214-1 to 1:17.ctan20150601-2.
With the new version, when using musixtmr for times font, the layout
changed dramatically in the headlines (too big headers) and - which is
even worse - the umlauts are broken.
I attached an example score compiled with both versions and the source
files. Can anyone reproduce this behavior, or has an idea why the new
version is broken?

Hi Simon, > after searching the WIMA for several days I > understood so far, that the proper way of > typesetting music including lyrics is using M-Tx. > I did not find a way to add chord symbols > to my sheet of music via M-Tx so far. M-Tx is quite convenient for music with lyrics - but it is also not too difficult to do the same stuff directly in pmx. You can just take a piece written in M-Tx, compile it to pmx and see the few lines defining the lyrics part (with musixlyr definitions - it is quite easy to learn from the pmx file), if you already know and like pmx. > Is it possible to do so by M-Tx or do I have to > write my music and lyrics in M-Tx, compile the > *.mtx-file to *.pmx and add the chords > "by hand" into the *.pmx-file (i.e. using pmxchord)? Usually, you can use any pmx commands in M-Tx files - nearly all commands that M-Tx doesn't understand are just passed to pmx. I like the header parts and the lyrics definitions of M-Tx more than the ones of pmx :-) But it's just a matter of taste...

Re: [Tex-music] wrong bracket size
Hi Dirk, > Do they look OK if you omit this line: > > Space: -3 -2 -2 -2 -2 +3 that doesn't change this problem. Playing a bit further, however, I just found out that omitting the line Size: 16 16 20 seems to help. So it looks as if the height or the upper ending position of the bracket gets messed up when there are different staff sizes - it also looks OK when I change the overall size to 16 with Size: 16 However, I don't understand why the bracket is too high although it is already in the larger staff sizes. > If so, the problem would be that the TeX code emitted by > \mtxGroup does not take into account the settings implied > by the \mtxInterInstrument commands before it. Interesting idea. Normally it seems to work. But I don't know how the change in staff sizes is organized.

Have a look at http://www.tug.org/TUGboat/tb32-1/tb100gregorio.pdf for a detailed description of the installation of texlive on debian-based systems. Version 2013 should work the same way. I don't know if mint uses sudo to execute a command with root rights (on my debian it is not configured like this). If that doesn't work, use su to get a root shell and type in the commands without sudo. Anything else should work the same way. > Once I have a TeX installation in place that tlmgr > (which seems to have been somewhat crudely removed from the "full" > version in the repositories, since some screenshots of the interface > are still there but not the executable itself), I might stand a better > chance of being able to follow the musixtex installation instructions > on the WIMA site. > > To that end, would someone be kind enough to explain how to add "the > relevant bin directory" to my PATH?

This directory is automagically on the PATH. But with the texlive version from ctan you shouldn't need that - getting the packages via tlmgr should do the job.

When you do the /full/ installation, you get some gigabyte of packages, no matter if compressed or uncompressed, as the tug installation media changed from several CDs to a DVD (there are several tex engines, different macro pakages, helper programs and thousands of packages, fonts etc. - but then you could even set klingon music with additional texts in runes and the japanese and arabic translations ;-) ).

Unfortunately I have texlive only installed via debian packages, and there some packages (as pmx and m-tx) are separately handled by the debian package management. On tex-level, you can always type texhash in a command windows, that re-creates the package data base. But there must also be a command option of tlmgr or a button in tlmgr --gui (or how you get the gui of the texlive manager - should also have an entry in the start menu). I would also first of all do a full update of any outdated package via the tlmgr, at least from miktex I know that bugfixes of a single latex package take some time to get into the windows installers. > On a related note, and before I did the above test, I was explaining to a > Mac-head friend about the supposedly new and seamless way that people can > get tex, musixtex, and pmx from online archives.

An installation of full texlive in 15 minutes would be increadibel fast - I suppose he just installed the basic tex engine with the most basic latex packages. That is enough for the classic "hello world" example of a latex document (but for extra features like music notation you will need extra packages). I hope you get the installation working soon.

The problem is the LTS version: either you use the up-to-date version
(raring? At least quantal!) and get texlive2012, or you use the LTS
version getting only security fixes and some tested bugfix version and
have a stable, but soon somehow outdated system... it was your choice
;-) Of course you /can/ install texlive by hand, if you don't care about
the benefits of a clean system package management system. Actually it is
often recommended, but somehow this is a bit contradictive to the idea
of LTS distros...

And works quite well. Only some of the short commands for compiling the
m-tx sources seem to be missing ("pmx2pdf" and "m-tx"), but the basic
commands prepmx (for m-tx) and pmx (pmx & tex for pmx -> dvi) are
working great.

The file seems to be the same as I get it.
With the new version of pmx (beta 2.616) I tried it out once more and
got some strange effects: When I use the precompiled pmxab.exe with wine
under my debian linux, everything is fine and the repeat appears in the
.tex file.
But when I compiled the pascal source with gfortran, as described in the
comments of the souce, the resulting pmxab produces the following error
in the .pml log:
Last non-blank character is "3", not "/,%"
ASCII code: 51
and the repeat is missing.
Also, instead of \endpiece, \Endpiece is used.
Playing around a bit with the last input block of the .pmx file shows
that the error happend when additional stuff (the comment line
% Coded by M-Tx
or even an additional newline) comes after the newline at the end of the
last music block.
So the detection of the end of the piece doesn't seem to work when pmxab
is compiled that way.
Can anyone confirm this behavior when compiling under linux?
And where does the errormessage come from?
Best regards,
Simon
I confirmed with a binary editor that all lines end with Hex 0D 0A as they
should in Windows text files. Assuming you don't want to buy a new computer
or OS to fix your problem, you might try just ending the piece with a single
bar, and getting the terminal repeat with inline TeX.

I've confirmed that this gives the repeat, although I don't yet understand
why. The PMX syntax "...| Rb /" is pretty flakey and I'd have thought either
we'd get a PMX error or the "Rd" would be ignored. But neither is happening;
the "Rd" causes \endpiece rather than \Endpiece , and the inline TeX
redefinition of \endpiece does the trick.
This all kinda makes me wonder how M-Tx users get double bars at the ends of
pieces (since using "|" after the last line in the M-Tx evidently gave Rd in
the PMX and \endpiece in the TeX) , and that'll be my next investigation.

Subject: [Tex-music] m-tx/pmx: ignoring repeats etc. at end of file
Hello,
I still have the problem that m-tx/pmx ignores commands after the last
note at the end of the piece, as I tried to explain some time ago. An
example, where the last repeat is ignored, is included at the end of
this mail.
Running m-tx, the repeat sign is included at the end of the last block,
followed by a strange linebreak and the / for the end of the staff. The
repeat gets lost in the pmx run. The tex-file finishes the piece with
\Endpiece
I can get it back if I manually delete an empty line between the last
block and the very last comment line in the pmx file.
Then the tex-file contains
\setrightrepeat\endpiece
This is a bit strange - why is this handled differently and how can I
get the repeat sign without editing the pmx file every time?

Simon

Re: [Tex-music] vertical space of interstaff compiled with pdflatex
Hi Don,
I tried to look into your problem but your file requires the file scrartcl.cls,
evidently part of a package called templates-fenn, and I can't find either of
them in a form I can use with MiKTeX 2.6. If you can provide a
further-stripped-down version that doesn't require exotic tex-live packages,
I'd still be willing to take a look, although without any guarantees at all due
to my rudimentary experience with latex.
scrartcl.cls is part of the KOMAscript bundle, which is available in
MikTeX (at least in the current version 2.9, but also in the older
versions 2.8 and 2.7.). At least in Germany, it is now most often
recommended as "standard" LaTeX document class, as it is better
configurable than article and matches better European or at least German
layout traditions.
With article.cls (and no Russian babel option, is not installed at my
computer), the problem seems to be the same. The modified source is below.

I get a strange behavior of the lyrics placement when I adjust the

The hyphens or melisma at the end of the old line already gets shifted

This may have something to do with end-of-line characters in different OS's, which I've never completely figured out how to handle in PMX. how is the last bar of the generated pmx code? Is there also that new line with / at the end? And which line end characters (of the PMX or M-Tx file?) do you have? By the way, Ubuntu and Debian should have the same builds, don't they?

With the following packages (current on Ubuntu Natty) I can't

Interesting. I have the same version of pmx, but a newer musixtex (o a

[Tex-music] M-Tx: Repeat at the end ignored
Hello,
in the example below, the repeat sign at the end of the piece is
ignored. M-Tx puts a final / in a separate line after the command Rr. If
I remove this line, I get the repeat sign; but of course I don't want to
modify the pmx file every time I compile the source.
How can I get the repeat sign without modifying the generated pmx file?
Viele Grüße,
Simon

Also, the "\setmaxinstruments{24}..." commands in the earlier message are a
bit mysterious...I'm pretty sure the original mtx source didn't have them,
and I doubt if the mtx doc requires them.
The original sources are in m-tx, processed then with pmx. In your mail
from Sun Apr 24 11:49:11, you told me that you included these commands
in PMX: ;-)
As to whether you need etex or not with 1.15, the answer is yes and no: Yes,
for ANY musixtex file generated with PMX, because I took the easy way out
and had PMX always insert the commands
\setmaxslurs{24}\setmaxinstruments{24} . And no, if you use a manually
generated musixtex file that doesn't use more than 12 voices.
That's this part of the mystery.
And perhaps this also explains why the etex package must be loaded?

Re: [Tex-music] Compile error in M-Tx documentation
Hi,
it seems to work if you add the line
\usepackage{etex}
directly after the \documentclass[11pt]{article} line.
Has anybody an idea why this is necessary?
Perhaps this line should be included in mtxdoc.tex ?

For me, it sounds like the problem I had some days ago with the example

There, a pmx (or musixtex) call used tex instead of etex, which no more
works with so many instruments.

If you have these eps (for example created with (La)TeX), you can
convert/export it with gsview to a pixel graphics format like .png or
.tif (I would not use .jpg because they have compession artefacts on the
white background). In a next step you can convert them back to eps, for
example with the command line tool bmeps which should come with MikTeX
(so you can at least install it with the MikTeX package manager), with
"convert" of the imagemagick tool (a swiss army knife for image
manipulation via command line), or gimp, which is a wonderful graphics
manipulation program (you can get all of these programs for free). With
these steps you get a .eps bitmap image without any character
information for inclusion in LaTeX.

The problem here ist that "normal" LaTeX can only handle eps images.
However, with pdfLaTeX you can include png or jpg pictures (and of
course pdf files), but here you get problems with (e)ps pictures or
commands, as they are necessary for example for ps-slurs.
There exist several workarounds for using (e)ps with pdfLaTeX, but they
are non-trivial.
Hope this helps,
Simon

Re: [TeX-Music] Lyrics are not displayed in resulting "*.pdf" or "*.dvi" file after compiling a "*.mtx" file
Hi Dieter, instead of "Style: Piano" you should use a style with lyrics. When you need something like piano staves with text, it could be TEXTPIANO: Voices RH LH; Choral; Clefs G F Style: Textpiano Just have a look at p.8 of the manual, there are the different possibilities explained. Good luck, Simon I've used "musictex" in combination with "LaTeX" two years ago to layout two pieces of music. Since one week I'm trying to learn using "MusiXTeX", "PMX" and "M-Tx", and my first steps typesetting notes were successful so far. But trying to add some lyrics is the beginning of my problems. When adding text as noted in "M-Tx" manual to my piece of music I compile it using the process "prepmx -> pmxab -> tex -> musixflx -> tex -> dvipdfm". But unfortunately only the notes are visible, not the lyrics! So I tested arround but everything seems to be fine, because there are no errors displayed during compilation or in the log files. To find out if I'm in trouble with my "MikTeX" installation under WindowsXP I've tested typesetting using the example "Net soos ek is" from Dirk Laurie's "M-Tx" manual. And what should I say? Everything is fine (... what else ...)! ___ tex-mu...@icking-music-archive.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://mailman.nfit.au.dk/mailman/listinfo/icking-music-archive.org-tex-music

I hope this would be also usable for m-tx ;-) Now, I use nedit as an editor and I'm missing mostly some syntax highlighting. Is there a common way of specifying it, so that you can use it for many different editors? I think this would be the most important thing to do. Scite seems also to be an interesting basis for an IDE, or any other custmizable editor.

Hello Jean-Pierre, > The trouble is that if I left the previous Acrobat window open, the > current call to MiKTeX Ghostscript ps2pdf fails because my .pdf file > cannot be overwritten, and I stay with the previous version displayed. another (often used) option is to use Foxit Reader http://foxitsoftware.com/ instead of the Adobe Reader. AFAIK it can't update the loaded PDF, so you have to close and re-open it manually, but it doesn't lock the PDF. There seems to be a script-based solution to automatically close and re-open the PDF, but I didn't try it myself: Just search for foxit and latex or TeXnicCenter (even if you don't use them). Foxit Reader is a very nice alternative to Adobe Reader! Another nice (and /very/ light) PDF viewer is sumatrapdf http://blog.kowalczyk.info/software/sumatrapdf/ It's free and very slim, but doesn't lock PDFs and can reload them (by just typing "r").

[TeX-Music] major bug in m-tx with cresc. and Ap
Hello, I tried to get http://icking-music-archive.org/scores/loewe/schaffe_in_mir_gott.zip to work with the Ap option. But when I insert it, the generated pmx code is invalid. The problem is that the crescendo/decrescendo macros get messed up. There should be an identifier (the current staff / voice number for example) which gets start and end of the hairpin matching.

[TeX-music] Re: tex input at the begin of a block
Thank you very much for the tip - it works fine!
As I got similar problems already some times before (TeX-input put at
the wrong place or ignored), my question is if it would be possible to
add a fourth command to PMX which puts a TeX-command just /before/ the
current block, after all line breaks and such things. Also, it would be
nice if TeX-input after the last note of a block (with the
input-commands of any type) could be inserted and would not be ignored
as they are now. Would it take major efforts to make such changes or
additions?
Best regards,
Simon
First of all I found a problem using your trick to get the last double
bar line as a standard bar rule: You put \\\stdbarrule\ at the begin
of the last bar / the last line. But unfortunatey, without your
various definitions before the block, the bar rule /before/ this bar
is also a standard bar rule. Is there any possibility to put
TeX-commands at the beginning of a block instead of the end of the
block that is coded before, as the TeX-Input with \\\code\ ? Look at
the following little examples, in both examples the code is at the
wrong place, before \alaligne or before the code of the page break.
And after the /last/ note, \\\code\ is simply ignored (why?).
The trick is to redefine \Endpiece such that it calls \stdbarrules

lines between the voices every second whole note. Unfortunately there
are many notes that begin in a bar and end in the next one, so I can't
code it straight forward as in music with bars. Has anybody an idea how
to get the bar lines and avoid tied notes (I think this would be ugly in
this piece)?

Simon

Re: [TeX-music] Gregorian chant in MusiXTeX
Hello Elie, I see 4 things that, I think, are missing in MusiXTeX : [...] It could be a part of my project to make it, so I don't write to ask you to do it, but if I must do it I would like to know if there are things I must know before intergrating it in MusiXTeX, or if you have tips. I think I will learn Metafont to do it. Did you have a look at OpusTeX? It's avilable as Debian package, but I don't know if there are packages for other distributions or even for windows, nor which is the latest version. OpusTeX supports gregorian chant very well and I think it's easier to use than MusixTeX for gregorian chants. And if you like to integrate the missing parts in MusixTeX, perhaps you can get some nice ideas from OpusTeX...

Re: [TeX-music] pmx installation under SuSE Linux 9.3
Hello Hartmut, the MusiXTeX Debian package has a program /usr/bin/musixtex. These are the first comment lines of the script: #!/usr/bin/perl -w [...] Maybe the SuSE package has a similar script. You can try to use the script from the SuSE MusiXTeX package. I think there is no need to uninstall the older version of MusixTeX at all. All you have to do is to put your .tex-stuff into your local TEXMF-tree, as you already did, and to put the executables at /usr/local/bin. Make sure they are executable! The commands ls -l /usr/local/bin/musixflx ls -l /usr/local/bin/pmxab ls -l /usr/local/bin/scor2prt should give an output beginning with -rwxr-xr-x Before you can use musixtex, you will also have to execute texhash as root! Without this, tex doesn't find any new file and the new version is just ignored.

[TeX-music] \llyr has no effect at 1st note
Hallo,
why do the \llyr\ -commands take no effect when placed before the first
note when there is a verse number? And what about the strange behaviour
when verse numbers are placed only in some of the verses?
When I coded the following example (for older versions of m-tx and pmx)
I had placed \llyr\lyroffset{-3}\ before the first note - I don't know
which standard behaviour the old versions had. Why did it change?
\lyroffset also seems to have an effect only on the numbers and no more
on the first syllable, so you can't put the lyrics of the first notes to
the left any more if they are a bit too long.
Best regards,
Simon

the problem is indeed that PMX cannot do a tie and a slur in the same

"allow" this or is it difficult to do this?

[TeX-music] note size and position with \metron
Hello,
using \metron I get some strange output: If I don't change the font size
used by m-tx for uptext lines, the note gets much too big. I corrected
the size of the note with \tinynotesize in the next example and used a
larger font for the text in the last example, here the sizes fit much
better. (Would it be possible to modify \metron to get the correct note
size automatically?) But in all three cases I think the note should be
right shifted, specially in the smaller note size, and a little bit
lower, too. How can I do this?

Hallo,
As I'd like to typeset a piece with many rests, I'd like to have cue
notes in one of the voices. Is it possible to put all of them into a
single voice added to the bass staff without influencing the direction
of the stem direction of my bass voice? It would be much simpler to get
different versions with or without this notes. Can I get *all* notes,
rests, accidentals etc. in this voice in \tinynotesize or \smallnotesize
or will I have to put it in every bar? Is it also possible to get the
corresponding uptext line in a smaller font, specially dynamic signs as
here the first pp, and also crescendo and decrescendo signs?

I downloaded 'musixtex-T112.tar' and unzipped it, but I don't manage to generate the fonts when I try to process some of Taupin's examples, like kv315f.tex, neither when I open some of the dvi files, like musixdoc.dvi. When I try to copy the tfm files into the directory ...texmf/fonts/tfm/public/musictex, Linux denies me the permissions. Hi Rodolfo, did you try this as root? Root should have writing permission to the folders you need. When you got all tfm files to the folder texmf/fonts/tfm/public/musix (and the other stuff to the suitable places, i.e. the files in the subdirectory metafont to texmf/fonts/source/public/musix, the files in the subdirectory tex to texmf/tex/musixtex and musixflx to /usr/local/bin), don't forget to run texhash or mktexlsr. Then you should have no problems with the examples. You should also have a look at pmx and perhaps also pmxpp or m-tx, it's _much_ less work to typeset a piece of music using these preprocessors than using musixtex directly!

PS: Try using preprocessors as PMX or M-Tx, it's much faster and easier to typeset and with inline musixtex-commands you can get nearly everything you can get with musixtex itself. It's worth trying it! Best regards, Simon ___ Tex-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
[Tex-music] ties with m-tx / pmx
Hello, how can I get multiple ties in a chord with m-tx? Coding a chord with three ties [with (t and )t] I get an error message that only two pairs of nested slurs are allowed.
