Response to TMX anti-halation; double fix nec. with dev. other than pyro?

I've been fooling around with TMX and Rodinal and am quite pleased with the results. It seems to have much better range than XTOL for this particular film. Very sharp, though has a distinct grain pattern, and the Rodinal seems to dissolve the dye, in fact it dumps out bright purple. Fixing TMX is always hard, but if you use the times published for it, it'll clear fine. It does need good agitation in fresh fixer- just letting it sit won't get the job done.
