http://rnvs.informatik.tu-chemnitz.de/~jan/noteedit/noteedit.html New features: - guitar chord diagrams - chord annotation - tse3-0.2.3 (and tse3-0.1.2, tse3-0.1.2) compatible - bug converning replay of non-balanced repeats fixed x Many thanks to Mikhail Yakshin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. x I used about 2000 lines from his kguitar project x (http://kguitar.sourceforge.net). x Note! kguitar is still under development. So excuse some x small problems. For instance: If you can't your preferred chord x diagram for a certain chord please set the fingers "by hand"! Some aspects of exporting guitar chord diagrams! ================================================ MUP can deal with chord names and chord diagrams. But it expects a chord diagram dictionary at top of file. Actually this is no problem. But if you attach 2 different chord diagrams for the same chord name there is no possibility to to distinguish the 2 forms. To give every chord diagram an unique name NoteEdit adds some underscores to the chord name. So be not surprised if you named a chord "C7" and "_C7" is printed! MUP cannot deal with a mix of some chords with chord diagram and some chords without chord diagram. MUP cannot deal with barre. MusiXTeX has an additional package called MusiXGui. This allows to annotate guitar chord diagrams and chord names. It works but unfortunately there is no possibility to add a fret information. So, if the fret is not equal 1 NoteEdit appends the fret information to the chord name. MusiXTeX/MusiXGui can only deal with full barre. LilyPond cannot deal with guitar chord diagrams. Actually it has a special feature for chord name annotation. But this is unusable for NoteEdit export because it tries reverse mapping from pitch combination to chord name. Thus, NoteEdit exports the chord names as ordinary uptext. Unfortunately, LilyPond does not take the width of the uptext into account. So it can happen the chords overlap. LilyPond has problems with # signs in uptext. Therfore # is converted into +. PMX can neither deal with chord names nor with guitar cord diagrams. Thus, NoteEdit omits the information. -- J.Anders, Chemnitz, GERMANY ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) _______________________________________________ TeX-music mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sunsite.dk/mailman/listinfo/tex-music
