prepmx(1) prepmx Manual Page prepmx(1) NAME prepmx - preprocessor for PMX, easy music typesetting program SYNOPSIS prepmx [options] jobname [outdir/] [stylefile] DESCRIPTION M-Tx is an easy to use preprocessor language for the PMX music typesetting program, aimed at people who are not experts. For an easy example, have a look at the following example: c2+ e4 g | b4d- c1 d c2 | c8 g+ e g c- g+ e g | d g f g c- g+ e g | For syntax reference, please look at the M-Tx manual written by Dirk Lau- rie, the creator of the M-Tx language and the author of prepmx(1), its com- mand-line utility. prepmx processes the file jobname.mtx to generate jobname.pmx. You can then process this file using the pmxab(1) command, which is a preprocessor for MusiXTeX. outdir/ is the directory where `pmx' will put the final .tex file. Note that the trailing slash is mandatory. You can provide a stylefile for M-Tx. If omitted, the file `mtxstyle.txt' in the current directory is used, if there is one. OPTIONS Options can also be specified in a `Options:' line in the preamble, which takes precedence over the command line. -b disable unbeamVocal -c disable doChords -D enable debugMode -f enable solfaNoteNames -i enable ignoreErrors -m disable doLyrics -n enable instrumentNames -t disable doUptext -u disable uptextOnRests -v enable beVerbose -w enable pedanticWarnings -n select Special Case n -H print enabled status of all options EXIT STATUS If no error was found, prepmx exits with return code 0. In case of an er- ror, the line number of the processed line is returned. This may not always be the line containing the actual error. A return status of 10000 means that the input file was empty or could not be opened.
