David: I'm pleased to report that after replacing Nikhil's own formatting function (which truncated decimal parts rather than rounding!) by string.format(%.., ...) I'm getting exact matches with musixflx.c output. It seems Nikhil didn't find the string.format( ) function in the manual :+) Bob ------------------------------- TeX-music@tug.org mailing list If you want to unsubscribe or look at the archives, go to http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
