Hi all,
Hi Steve,
The TabStaff is amazingly cool. I'm not a big tab user myself,
but for people who want tabs, LilyPond makes it easy to add them.
I've been busily adding tabs for a few months and have some feature
requests to put into the queue if possible.
1) Setting fixed strings to use for ascending/descending chords.
Currently it's nontrivial to specify tab positions for something like:
<c c'> <d d'> <e e'> <f f'>
<g g'> <a a'> <b b'> <c c'>
[...]
Hm, I don't know how you would invoke such a feature - perhaps like
(pseudo-syntax!)
\useStrings #'(3 5)
to tell lilypond only to use these strings within the fret number
calculation?
Sounds interesting, but I don't know how to implement it.
2) Have the automatic tab calculator understand the -0 fingering.
Currently if you do something like this:
+1
3) Being able to specify the frets for harmonics. I know there's been
some talk about this, but it's a pretty big deal as there's no workaround.
Anyone planning on publishing in the next few months (e.g., me :)
is going to be out of luck.
I wrote such a extension, which is still in some beta state, so it would
be great if you
give it a try and tell me whether it works well in real-life situations.
You can get it here:

By the way, there is a mailing list especially for tablature concerns:

Marc
