That's because our update robot scanned the location and regards "ccn" as a later version than "250". :-) At the new location, there's the same issue. But no problem. You can also have a look at http://packages.debian.org/unstable/tex/pmx which is more suitable for users. There's also an old sunsite.dk link. That one will be updated automatically in the near future. bye, Roland signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part ___ Tex-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://icking-music-archive.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music

Thanks for doing it, Don. I integrated the new version into Debian.
Therefore, I needed to convert pmx250.zip to a Unix-style tarball. If
you are interested, have a look at
http://packages.qa.debian.org/p/pmx.html . There (at the bottom), you
will find pmx_2.5.0.orig.tar.gz which can be renamed just to
pmx-2.5.0.tar.gz. Without the other files you find on the page, the
tarball is not Debian specific. The README reads as follows:
=
Unix style package of PMX
=
This is the Unix style version of PMX, initially provided for Debian,
but (hopefully) suitable for any Unix-like system like GNU/Linux.
Prerequisites for building/installing this package:
* GNU Fortran 77 (g77)
* LaTeX
* MusiXTeX
Command for building:
$ make
Command for installing (as root):
# make install
Command for uninstalling (as root):
# make uninstall
Changes to the original pmx250.zip:
* Removed bin/*
* Removed original doc/* (to be generated from the tex/*.tex sources)
* dos2unix'ed all text files (and added EOL to pmxab.for)
* Renamed: tex/pmx250.tex -> tex/pmxdoc.tex
* Renamed: tex/ref250.tex -> tex/ref.tex
* Renamed: examples/DYNTEST.PMX -> examples/dyntest.pmx
* Moved pmxab/pmx250.for and scor2prt/scor2prt.for to src/pmxab.for and
src/scor2prt.for
* src/{pmxab,scor2prt}.for: applied proposed getarg changes
* Included man pages doc/{pmx,pmxab,scor2prt}.1
* Added src/pmx convenience executable
* Added Makefile infrastructure
* Added ChangeLog (changes from PMX 2.2 to latest version)
* Added this README

Some notes regarding it: (1) Please let me remind you of your words from last July: = Thanks for staying on my case. I'll adopt the GNU General Public License for PMX, include it in future PMX distributions, and include the following notice in the source file: "This program, PMX, originally developed by Don Simons ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), is a preprocessor for MusiXTeX. In concert with MusiXTeX and TeX, its purpose is to allow the user to create high-quality typeset musical scores by including a sequence of PMX commands in an ASCII input file.

Now I can't find it there. Even nothing inside pmx250.zip contains the word "license". Remember that without a license, nobody is allowed to use or distribute PMX. Not even the Werner Icking Music Archive. As the author, you are the primary copyright holder, and if you want to empower users to copy and share your software you must state a license. Please include the above promised statement somewhere in pmx250.zip and include a copy of http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt . (2) Please provide ref250.tex as you did for 2.3 and 2.4.
