hi,

I think things like adding \set chordShape #a would only be good in barré
cases.

I suggested the string as basis because of all the chords that are not
based on the basic chords, and in different positions as well, with a root
on different strings, often found in Jazz.
I've looked at the link Patrick showed. These are indeed based on basic
chord shapes but again, these don't offer a solution for chords out of the
basic chord shape range.

In the mean time, I'm already working on a list :-p, I'll put them on
github when I've got something worth to look at :-)

grtz,

Bart
