Col. S.--

Sorry, I should have sent that info. Here's the TeX file:

===============================
\input musixtex
\normalmusicsize%
\nopagenumbers
\tracingstats=2\relax
\hsize=524pt
\vsize740pt
\def\nbinstruments{1}
\setstaffs11
\setclef10
\setname1{ }
\generalsignature{ 0}%
\generalmeter{\meterfrac{4}{4}}%
\parindent 0pt
\elemskip1pt\afterruleskip1.000pt\beforeruleskip0pt\relax
\stafftopmarg0pt\staffbotmarg5\Interligne\interstaff{10}\relax
\nostartrule
\input tuplet%
\def\pnotes#1{\vnotes#1\elemskip}%
\def\tuplettxt{\smallppff 3}%
\startmuflex\startpiece\addspace\afterruleskip%
% Bar count 1
\pnotes{2.31}\downtuplet a{2.00}3\qu e\qu f\qu g%
\uptuplet{'b}{2.00}3\ql{`c}\ql d\ql e\en%
\Endpiece
\vfill\eject\endmuflex
\bye
=============================

and here's the error message:

===================

and the same result with Version T.111+.  Here's

If anyone else can figure out what's wrong, feel free to jump in.
