Yes, LP can do guitar tab, but it might leave some rock guitarists wanting.
For classical pieces it would probably be adequate (there's no support, at
least in the version I use - 2.6.5 - for things like bends,
hammer-ons/pull-offs, etc). Just guessing, since I've never really done any
serious classical guitar work. :-)
I picked up how to incorporate tabs through the users manual, so I gather for
even a more recent version there's got to be a good starting point in one of
the sections. But I also understand that if you are new to LP the users manual
can seem intinmidating (actually any computer programming/application users
guide can be that way to a novice). As is usual, I am at work and don't have
any example code, but I'd be glad to send an example to you later if you are
still scratching your head.LP tabulature is said by some to be a bit
non-standard, but I think it does the job wonderfully, especially when paired
to standard notation.

PROTECTED]: Is it possible to generate guitar tab below the notation staff ?
Hi all,
I've just subscribed to the lilypond-user list and I'd like to ask a
question...
I am a very beginner to the classical guitar and also to the music notation...
today I struggled a lot and finally I've been able to produce the notation
staff of one of the pieces we've learned to play on the guitar... what I
couldn't find though on the user manual is that I'd like to have the guitar
tablature generated besides the music staff... is this possible with lilypond ?
and if yes, could you help me find what part of the document I have to read
because there is not much in the "instrument-specific notation" chapter...
Many thanks in advance...
Vasil
