 Anyone have a good utility for extracting chords from abc? Nothing fancy.

I suppose you could do that with grep, but there are lots of people here
that knows more than me about that.

This could be a nice tool for making basic bass parts for tunes too, btw.


 The result would look something like this:

Are you sure the second bar in line 2 shouldn't be G? 
Like this:

X:1
T: Scatter the Mud
M: 6/8
K: ADor
Am G | Am | Am Em | G | Am G | Am | Em | G Am :|
Am G | -  | Am Em | G | Am G | -  | Em | G Am :|

Or - to include the whole tune:

X:1
T:Scatter the Mud
R:Jig
Z:Transcribed by Frank Nordberg
S:Based on various versions posted on Internet, mainly a transcription
by John Walsh
M:6/8
L:1/8
K:ADor
"Am"eAA "G"BAA|"Am"eAA "Em"ABd|"Am"eAA BAB|"G"dBG GBd|\
"Am"eAA BAA|"Am"eAA AGE|"Em"GAB d2e|[1"G"dBA "Am"ABd:|[2"G"dBA "Am"A3||
|:"Am"aba "G"g2e|"G"dBG GBd|"Am"aba "Em"g2e|"G"dBd e3|\
"Am"aba "G"g2e|"G"dBG AGE|"Em"GAB d2e|[1"G"dBA "Am"ABd:|[2"G"dBA "Am"A3|]




 The performer is assumed to be relatively intelligent.

Don't bet on that ;)

 The output could look more-or-less like abc, except that nothing remains in
 the tune except the barlines and the chords, and the quotation marks are
 removed from the chords.
 

I do not have such a utility, but if you want one and are prepared to do
a bit of C coding, a good bet might be to modify abc2abc to do this.

When I publish my ABC stuff, I always include the ABC, as well as the
MIDI and the PDF.  It doesn't use a significant amount of space,
compared to the pdf, and it gives people access to the "source", in
case they want to make different editorial decisions than I do, or
print it in a different key, or translate the words to a different
language, or anything.

[abcusers] problem downloading .ABC files

2000-09-19 Thread Alberto Duran

Hey all!

I'm new to this list and have noticed that you
contributers are quite the experts on editing abc
so PLEASE help me if you can!
About a year ago I downloaded abc2win and was able
to download all kinds of wonderful abc files and 
print or play them on the various other programs
that I installed (like Melody Assistant), life was
great. For quite some months now I have this very
irritating problem; when I visit a site ,that has abc
files, and when I click on something like- 
"Reels 1-100" instead of getting the download window
,that asks where to save the file,all I get is the
printed text of the abc tunes! AGH!
Nothing I do seems to work. I've tried everything
but to no avail.
On his web site,Henrik Norbeck,explains how to
"set up Netscape to read .abc files correctly".
Well and good that is for those lucky souls with 
Netscape but I'm still unable to simply download
any abc files.
Will anyone please help me! It's driving me mad!
Thanks. Any help is greatly appreciated!

   Sincerely,
 Alberto Duran

Another approach, if it is Netscape, is to hold down the shift key while 
you click on the link to the file. The save file dialog should appear.

Jim Vint

 That is because, probably on the server side, the file is being sent as
 "mime/txt" which your browser recognizes as something it can display so it
 does.
 
 Just right click on the link, and select "save target as..." from the
 resulting menu.
