Sorry Chris, I figured you'd agree so I went ahead and implemented it. Perhaps the dialog should clearly state that a given chord is a custom one, but I'm not sure how to do that. > > When you ask how I'd like a chord dictionary to behave, my first thought > > is that I'd like to see chords grouped by category.

Now what remains to be decided is how to sort those chords... I'm not sure a classification based on musical style would be practical, at least because I have no clue on how to do it properly :-). I don't feel much like debating on whether D9 is a rock chord or not, and I haven't got the faintest idea on what chords Country or Reggae is based on. I'd rather go for a simple classification over complexity. This page shows 3 categories : beginner, common, all : http://www.all-guitar-chords.com/guitar_chords_common.php That sounds adequate to me, what do you think ? -- Guillaume. http://telegraph-road.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
