16 While it is possible to place musical symbols
17 such as fermatas and coda signs using
18 <A HREF="textmark.html">text statements,</A>
19 it is perhaps a bit confusing, since music
20 symbols are really not part of any particular font. So there is a "mussym"
21 statement which can be used. The text strings after the colon must each
22 consist of a single musical symbol whose name can be given without the
23 usual \() wrapper. The following two lines produce identical results,
24 but the second is perhaps a bit clearer:
26 rom above 1: 1 "\(ferm)";
27 mussym above 1: 1 "ferm";
31 A duration is not allowed on mussym statements
32 except in one special case--if the
33 symbol is "tr" (trill). In that case, the duration tells Mup how long a
34 wavy line to draw from the end of the "tr" symbol.
37 mussym above 1: 1 "tr" til 2; 3 "ferm";

43 A size can optionally be specified, inside parentheses:
45 mussym (15) above 2: "turn";
