Re: Guitar Tab / Bends

If you're into guitar stuff, there's something else you might be 
interested in cleaning up and getting working ...


I wrote a capo feature, but it sort of fell by the wayside. If you're 
using chord notation, it puts "Capo G" or whatever at the start of the 
piece, and transposes the chord and puts it in brackets after the main 
chord.


I think I can find it and pass it over to you - I'm sure I've got the 
patch files, and the feature branch is, I think, still there but 
moribund - if you search for "guitar capo" on the list, you might find 
it. As I remember it really just needs cleaning up - unfortunately my 
scheme-fu wasn't up to it.


Cheers,
Wol

Yes, the development is still active. I guess you'd better subscribe 
to lilypond-devel for questions about development.


Can I suggest something to work on? :-)
You may remember that Marc Hohl bend.ly file had bending notation for 
both Staff and TabStaff.


Harm's implementation is more powerful.. see this commit:
https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/commit/376a8c362fea5b754ff383dd62f2664f8dea13bb 



but it lacks the bending notation on Staff.

Now I know that I will definitely fool around with 2.23!

I ask because I've been away for a while because I've had a change of 
scenery from full-time transcription and publishing to full-time 
software developer (with some other stuff in between). I'm starting 
to think now about contributing to a project and I may want to dive 
into LilyPond if there are areas that need work that no one is 
working on currently. Naturally, I thought of Guitar capabilities 
since that was the area I worked in for publishers.


So glad this community is still active and development continues.

Is anyone currently using this capability?




Hi David

We haven't seen you for a while. IIRC I started using LilyPond 12 
years ago thanks to a post from you in a Tuxguitar forum :-)


Do you know that guitar bending has been included in LilyPond 2.23.0?

I'm not using LilyPond much these days, but I do have several scores 
using this new bending feature and it's working pretty good.
