Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : chordii Version : 4.2 Upstream Author : Johan Vromans <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://chordii.sourceforge.net * License : GPL v2 or later Programming Lang: C Description : Format music sheets from text files
Chordii is a fork of Chord, a program very popular several years ago, and most famous for its trendsetting 'ChordPro' music file format. After multiple failed attempts to contact the original authors, it was determined that Chord was unmaintained. Luckily, Chord was licensed under the GPL, so it was forked into Chordii and active development could continue. Chordii's purpose is to provide guitar players with a tool to produce good looking, self-descriptive music sheets from text files. Chordii reads a text file containing the lyrics of a song, the chords to be played, their description and some other optional data to produce a PostScript document that includes: Centered titles Chord names above the words Graphical representation of the chords at the end of the songs Transposition Multiple columns on a page Index of a songbook Multiple logical pages per physical pages (1, 2 or 4) Configurable fonts for the lyrics and the chord names Multiple songs inside one file The complete ISO 8859-1 character set Chorus marking And, as they say, more... and even more to come!
