During processing

During run time the program displays the measure it currently processes on the screen between square brackets. This is the sign that the program is actually doing something useful.

In some cases you may want to decide to abort the processing. You can do so by pressing the 'q' on the keyboard. The MusicTEX  file and the log file are closed and the program exits. See section [*] for additional info. The code generated until the q key was hit can be translated normally. Code is appended which correctly closes the music document.

After completion of the translation process the program displays the number of pages it has coded.
