Re: [Tex-music] XML2PMX is ready for testing; test is stopped
Hi Bob, I got some interesting feedback from the test. Now I am working on new features and also on making the tool more robust. Therefore we can stop the test. Could you then please erase the present version of XML2PMX from the WIMA page. Thanks to all testers!

Re: [Tex-music] XML2PMX is ready for testing
Hi Don, thanks for your testing effort. I will look into this ASAP, but not next week. I know the problem with pick ups. The treatment of pickups is not yet automatic in XML2PMX. Furthermore, when I have a pickup e.g. of one quarter alone in the first PMX input block, (marked like 1 1 4 4 4 4 1 0) then PMX seems to think that the remaining measures are also 1/4. So in this case I have always put a blind meter change before the first full measure. I did not know, that I can have an arbitrary pickup without announcing it in advance, when I add a blind meter change. Regards, Dieter Am 03.07.2015 um 20:37 schrieb Don Simons: Dieter-- I downloaded the XML for the Mahler Lieder eines fahrenden Gesellen:... from the web site you referenced. xml2pmx processed it OK, but the pmx file had various errors involving the pickup bar at the beginning, dynamic mark commands coming before any notes in a bar, and possible a few others. Best if you download the xml yourself and work through it. Regarding the pickup bar, instead of using PMX's pickup facilities, you may want to consider putting the pickup into a separate bar, then changing the meter at the first full bar. For example with a quarter note pickup to a whole note in 4/4, instead of 1 1 4 4 4 4 1 0 ... g44 c0 / you could do 1 1 1 4 4 4 0 0 ... g44 / m4400 c05 / If you ever were to activate new movements in xml2pmx, you'd find that the PMX pickup mechanism doesn't work at the start of a new movement, but the scheme I just described is a viable alternative, naturally using the m command to set the initial meter in the new movement, just as you normally would to set any meter at the start of a new movement. --Don Simons -Original Message- From: TeX-Music [mailto:tex-music-boun...@tug.org] On Behalf Of Dieter Sent: Friday, July 03, 2015 7:21 AM To: tex-music@tug.org Subject: Re: [Tex-music] XML2PMX is ready for testing Hi Dirk, right now we are in beta test.

Re: [Tex-music] XML2PMX is ready for testing
Hi Luigi, Bob proposed to translate my little utility into C and then run it on Unix. There are several C translators for Oberon on the market, but I do not know enough C to do it myself. I will ask the people from the Oberon mailing list obe...@lists.inf.ethz.ch for advice. The other option would be to run my Oberon Code on UNIX and then make a UNIX executable. But again this is no safe ground for me. Thanks for your interest!
