Re: [Tex-music] PMX and Mac OS X

2010-11-20 Thread Philipp Neukel

OK all.

It works now. I cannot tell you why, because I did not do anything  
than use it the way it did. And now it works the way it should and I  
can use PMX perfectly. There are just a few problems left, but they  
are propably human dependent or else I will write again.


THANKS

Re: [Tex-music] PMX and Mac OS X

2010-11-19 Thread Jill-Jênn VIE
2010/11/19 Bernhard Lang bernhard.l...@gmx.ch:
 1st attempt, run the binary pmxab: the compiled pmxab relies on a dynamically 
 linked library called libgfortran.3.dylib which is supposed to be in the 
 directory /usr/local/gfortran/lib/ which is of course not there.

 pmxab
 dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/gfortran/lib/libgfortran.3.dylib
  Referenced from: /Users/bernhard/temp/pmx/pmx2521-OSX-Intel/./pmxab
  Reason: image not found
 Trace/BPT trap

I'm so sorry. I indeed compiled it with gfortran (don't remember if I
used a PKG file or the fink version, but I fink it was think (or the
contrary)), but I should have used extra options. I didn't know it
would use such a dylib file.

 3rd attempt, install f2c from fink: local problem, after reinstalling fink, 
 f2c provided by fink runs now, but the package doesn't provide the necessary 
 library libf2c or similar

What about MacPorts? I dont have MacPorts here so I can't tell you if it exists.

2010/11/19 Philipp Neukel phil...@neukel.com:
 Just to let you know, maybe you can see the mistake:

 I made a large amount of new test.pmx files playing around with the Smultron
 encoding settings (all als plain text Document): No effect (but none
 expected)

OK. UTF-8 is better.

 I completely reinstalled PMX:
 pmxab and scor2prt to usr/local/bin

So I assume:
$ which pmxab
Returns: “/usr/local/bin/pmxab”?

 pmx.tex to usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/generic/PMX

I assume you downloaded the PPC version (sorry to ask)?

 I moved pmx.tex to usr/local/texlive/texmf-local/tex/generic/musixtex but
 moved it back after it did not work

This file is important for the compilation of the MusiXTeX file.

 I made an individual texhash run after each change

It is important when you modify the $TEXMFLOCAL folder.

 I tried all the changes in all possible combinations. Just consider that
 time!

:/

 Nothing helped.

:(

 I read Bernhard's Mail today about the compiling and programming problems. I
 just used the Mac OS X files from the WIMA page. Could that be my mistake?
 What do I have to do to compile all that myself?
 Considering I never installed or used anything like that: What do I have to
 download and install in what order, how, where on the HD?

By chance, do you have fink? I assume you don't. Try:
$ which fink
In the Terminal.

This afternoon, I'll be in front of an iMac G5 PPC too. I'll install
pmxab again as well and tell you.

2010-11-19 Thread Jill-Jênn VIE
2010/11/19 Philipp Neukel phil...@neukel.com:
 Hey everyone,

 I have a funny thing to tell you: It works now.

 The question: How?
 Honestly - I am not sure.
 It works whenever I have pmxab in the same folder as the pmx-file and I use
 it via

 $ cd .../folder
 $ ./pmxab file.pmx

 I replaced the pmxab in usr/local/bin many times by now, but it never
 worked, only when I do it this way. It looks like a property problem. But it
 cannot be for it won't work when i am logged in as root.

 Thanks for your help, I would have given up without you and it was you
 suggestion Jill-Jênn, which gave me the idea and the right command at hand.

 Thanks a lot.

I advise you to make a directory bin is your home directory (~/bin),
then put pmxab in it, then:
$ emacs .tcshrc
I bet the problem lies in it, could you please tell me what you see in it?
(Oh, wait, is it indeed written tcsh in the title of your terminal
window? If it's written bash, you have to replace .tcshrc with
.profile)

If you can't use emacs, just do:
$ mv .tcshrc LOOOL
So you can open LOOOL with Smultron and modify it.

Put:
setenv PATH $HOME/bin:$PATH
at the end.

Then, obviously:
$ mv LOOOL .tcshrc

So ~/bin/pmxab will prevail over /usr/local/bin/pmxab (don't know why
this one doesn't work though).

 And here is my first question as real PMX user:

 There are so many

 \hardspace{pt}%

 in the generated tex-file. It is annoying. It gives me

 bar 3
 ! Missing number, treated as zero.
 to be read again
 *
 argument *
 ***pt
 \hardspace #1-\ch...@nopen \...@rmskip \...@v #1
 \addspace \...@v \...@spc
 l.53 \hardspace{pt}
 %
 ?

 basically with every bar. Even if I make two or three pmx-runs. Is this
 supposed to happen?

This is due to your indentation (the last number is the preamble). It
should be like 0.085 if it is “Piano”, so maybe 0.09 for “Klarinette
in B”.

Don't forget to musixflx!

 I have been using MusixTeX for some time now because I was not able to get 
 PMX working at all - whatever the reasons may have been. But now that my 
 musical education is getting more serious and therefore my need to write much 
 music in a short time is getting urgent I started learning PMX today. I did a 
 lot of reading and installed everything perfectly.

Great idea. PMX FTW \o/ (sorry for the kikoolol messages).

You need to put a slash at the end of each line.

( b2 f4- ) r | r2 r4 r8d d15 | ( d2 b4 ) r4 | r4 ( c45 e g4- ) | r4 ( a44 g4+ f

 I hope there are Mac Users out there willing to help


Yup. I don't understand why we don't get the same output though. Do you use 
pmxab or something with TeXShop?

Thanks for your help - although it did not help YET

Slashes at the line end made no difference.
Neither did zip/unzip.

Yes i am using pmxab with the terminal. The pmx file is written with  
textedit and TeXworks. Independently tested.

Is there actually a way to use pmx with TeXShop?

Oh, I think I understood. It's because of the \r on Mac but \n on UNIX (but I 
don't understand why barsant.pmx didn't work, did you open it with TextEdit as 
well?).

Can you use emacs? Else, try Smultron.

Don't think so. I asked because I didn't recognize the output.

OK, I got emacs and Smultron. What am I to do now?

I now used a completely unopened barsant - newly extracted from the  
zip-file. Still won't work.
