The Snippet List extract for a simple lead-sheet template
( melody, lyrics, chords and fret diagrams ) is not practical
because it produces only trivial 3-note fretboard diagrams
(the three lowest guitar strings are always marked as unused).

The Snippet included in Notation Reference 2.12.3
(pages 230/231) uses ' predefined-guitar-fretboards.ly ' :
\version "2.12.2"
\include "english.ly"
\header { title = "Fretboard Bug" }
\include "predefined-guitar-fretboards.ly"
mychords = \chordmode { c1 f g }
<<
\context ChordNames {\mychords }
\context FretBoards {\mychords }
>>

However, this produces the following compilation error message:
# -*-compilation-*-
Processing `I:/LilyPond/Vocal/fretboard snippet.ly'
Parsing...
C:/Program Files/My
Progs/Music/LilyPond/usr/share/lilypond/current/ly/predefined-guitar-ninth-
fretboards.ly:28:36:
error: syntax error, unexpected STRING
\storePredefinedDiagram \chordmode {
cis:9}
- - - - - - - - - - -
Notice that there is no c#9 requested in the required chord list!
The continental format "cis" gives the game away, and when
'\include "english.ly" ' is commented-out, the snippet works.
