Just an idea: What about having MusiXTeX use macros instead of registers? Sure, this would make musixtex.tex's coding somewhat more complicated, especially where calculations are to be performed, but in many situations, macros behave just like allocated registers. I've done this change with musixlyr, and in the end I was surprised how little the necessary code changes actually were. <vision> Having overcome the register limitation, MusiXTeX could easily be made capable of handling arbitrary numbers of instruments, slurs, beams, etc. </vision> Best regards, Rainer _______________________________________________ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
