Sorry, I can't reproduce the error, and line 143 in pmxab is a comment line. This may be caused by a dimension problem my Windows version is insensitive to. Can anyone provide any clearer debug info?
I can reproduce the problem on a Redhat 7.3 linux pc. That is, when I process the sample pmx source with the 'official' pmx release 2.501 compiled with g77. Contrarily a binary compiled with f2c processes the pmx source succesfully.
When I process the pmx source with the most recent pmx bugfix release 2.506 compiled with g77 I still get the warning
-- WARNING: > Last non-blank character is "", not "/,%" > ASCII code: 191 >
as long as there is at least one newline character after the last line in the pmx source. If I remove the newline character I see no warning.
There is no warning and no error when I process the pmx source with pmx 2.506 compiled with f2c, regardless of trailing newline charaters.
Hence my advice is
- upgrade to pmx 2.506 and compile with either g77 (straightforward) or f2c (a little more complicated, see http://icking-music-archive.org/software/musixtex/musixtex-for-unix.html#TOC22)
- recompile your current pmx version with f2c.
That being said there remains the question on why pmx behaves differently under linux depending on compiling method.
