I think you've known too few guitar players, or too seasoned ones. Most people that play guitar (not pro guitar players) that I know would hesitate when confronted to a F#7sus4. Though maybe you're a Jazz or Fusion player and use that chord extensively ;-) Well, okay, the ones who don't know any music theory wouldn't know what I meant, but fuck 'em -- all they know is pentatonic minor anyway. :) Hey, what's wrong with that?

Unless they play like me, and just say, that chord must use more than three fingers. Doesn't sound punk rock to me.

I don't think anyone who doesn't already know what guitar tablature is is going to care about this. I think string and fret notation is baby-talking it. I don't think I've ever met a guitar player who wouldn't know what I meant if I said, hey, can you show me how to finger an F#7sus4 in the second position? or hey, can you show me how to finger a two-octave A diminished arpeggio at the fifth position?.

You don't need to mention what the program was written in. It is the new name of GTablature, and now use Tk instead of Gtk. Songwrite can open the GTablature's files, and has a very similar look and feel. Instead of talking about how Songwrite relates to GTablature, mention its history in one sentence and then describe what Songwrite (and thus, GTablature) does. -- Joe Drew [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] My weblog doesn't detail my personal life: http://me.woot.net
