"Just open a browser enter some strings and there you have it your tab.." - that's exactly the motivation Heller, glad I found some like-minded ppl. Actually, the truth is that jTab was a spur-of-the moment project to test out raphael. The idea of sticking it in TW came as an idle thought afterward - but I guess I should pretend that was the idea all along. It is so *right* ;-)
Måns - interesting to see you imagining the same idea in your old thread on Lilypond;-) Do let me know about any ways it can be improved to meet your transcription needs. jtab still young, but I'd like to make sure it is a good, robust and general purpose solution for all guitar transcription.
