More significantly, tab needs a sound previewer even more than
ABC does. A PostScript generator alone is just going to lead
to lots of beautifully typeset nonsense.
no, similar in a way to abc2midi and yaps, tab can generate both
midi and postscript. tab filename generate a ps file, while tab

Do abcusers know also about Wayne Cripps' tab program ?
it's similar to abc and can produce good tablature for lute,
converting the ascii source into postscript :
As other people have pointed out, this is a somewhat theoretical
possibility for some (like me; the only C compiler I've actually
Hello,
I agree the site
(http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute/AboutTab.html) is not
really user friendly because you can only get the sources, and
maybe (but I'm not sure) the binaries from the ftp site, in a
folder that has disappeared now. I think the MSwindows binaries
were available, and

I've noticed it, but since it's not cross-platform compatible, it's
pretty useless as a *standard* format.
Nice idea, though.

The sources are provided, so you just have to get a C++ compiler
and compile them on your machine. So I guess even on Atari it

I see your point Eric, but it seems to me you're making a mistake that
seems to be a bit too common here: You assume that the average computer
user is able to take a C script,

No, I didn't.
I said the format (not the application) wasn't cross-platform compatible.

I have been trying to transcribe a rather obscure, and as far
as I know never-before-transcribed, piece of tablature from a
Scottish manuscript of about 1680. The MS gives no clue as to
what instrument it's for or what the tuning is, except that it
had four strings - the tab is written on four of
Fascinating!
I always knew that somebody would come up for a use for the middle
directive which involved shifting the notes by an amount different
from an octave.
The experimentation which produced that was not too difficult using
BarFly, except for that insane numerical transpose notation;

Always trust Jack to come up with good an unusual music - and
interesting challenges :)

I don't know. It sounded odd to me too at first, but now I really like
that detail.
