pmx for Debian
--------------
After upgrading from pmx-1.3.6 (or older) to pmx-1.3.8, when you
process your .mtx or .pmx files, musixflx might complains that the
\Endpiece command is missing and dies. If your original source
is an M-Tx file (.mtx), please upgrade to m-tx 0.40a or later to
solve the problem. Here is an explanation from PMX's author:
Date: Wed, 27 May 1998 09:01:17 -0700
From: dsimons@logicon.com (Don Simons)
Subject: Re: Ending an M-Tx piece with |]
To: mutex@gmd.de

It appears that when ending an M-Tx piece with |], so that the PMX
file's first line in the last bar has an extra RD in it, the TeX file
produced no longer contains an \Endpiece command, so musixflx dies.
Why might this be?
Since Dirk privately sent me the offending PMX source, I can answer:
In the process of generalizing the allowable positions of "Rd" and
"Rr" in PMX 1.3.8, I assumed that if any "R?" were given explicitly
just before the final "/" of a movement or piece, it would not be
"RD". I assumed this because "RD" is the default in those cases.
According to Werner's formulation of Don's law, I will fix this (i.e.,
admit the redundant "RD") in (year 2018)-n , where n=1 time unit of my
choice.

Enjoy! :-)
