I looked at gitene.mtp. What I need to do for six string lute is move
the fret numbers up on top of the barlines somewhere and change the
numbers to letters from the lute fonts for a conversion to french lute
tablature. Change to italian tablature would require reversal of
tablature only so I could easily figure this out from gitene.mtp, but
there is a variation in time symbols appearing above the fret numbers
and the fret number fonts themselves I would like to change. German
tablature needs a change in font symbols for frets and no barlines. So
five problems I need to figure out are:
1. How to move fret symbol to top of bar line
2. How to change font of fret symbol number or letter
3. How to put lute font symbols for courses beyond sixth for archlute,
theorbo and baroque lute below lowest barline
4. How to change font of time symbol
5. Special case of no barlines for german tablature
Can you offer any assistance in changing fonts of fret numbers and time
symbols, changing positions of fret symbols to top of barlines or below
lowest barline and turning barlines off?
I looked at tabdef.tex but I don't know how to change the tabbox for
fret number so it puts the fret number between barlines. Also I don't
know how to change fonts of fret symbols as I only see for example
E2100 in gitene.mtp for the first chord with the arabic numerals
appearing as given in the chord symbol. If I change the numerals to
letters they are undefined at \pnotes in gitenel.pmx. I have never
written any tex macros before and can only look each command in them up
to see what they mean and comment them out if I want to stop them from
being used like getting c++ code to compile.
Unfortunately these TeXnical questions are far beyond my area of
MusiXTeX knowledge and experience. Expert assistance is required - Olivier?
