I don't know about Frescobaldi, but there is a trivial way to insert Fret
Diagrams in LilyPond.
You'll really not want to use markup fret diagrams; the FretBoards
context is much better and more powerful.
See the Notation Reference, Section 2.4.
The general structure of the piece would be:
mychords = \chordmode{
}
myNotes= {
}
myLyrics = \lyricmode{
}
\score {
<<
\new ChordNames {\mychords}
\new FretBoards {\mychords}
\new Voice = "melody" {myNotes}
\new Lyrics \lyricsto "melody" \myLyrics
>>
}
HTH,
