New issue 865 by v.villenave: Enhancement: ancient tablatures support
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=865
Francisco Vila has found a nice feature that could be implemented in
Lilypond: ancient tablatures.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2009-10/msg00063.html
You can see some examples of these tablatures on
http://www.mateus-lutes.com/tablature/ ; they are currently typeset using
http://www.theaterofmusic.com/fronimo/
Trevor has gathered some additional informations:
"
The symbols above the staff are the note
values, minim, crochet etc..., the letters
on the strings are fret numbers (the sequence
from a - open string - is:
a, b, r , d, e, f, g, h, j, k, l, m).
The comma after a letter indicates decoration
(different depending on the composer).
The dots, single & double indicate the finger
on the right hand that plucks the string.
The staff indicates the first 6 strings and
the basses are indicated below the staff as
follows in descending order: a a/ a// a/// 4 5 6
There's a lot more information and another
lute tab typesetter at
http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute/AboutTab.html
"
I'm personally willing to put a 50€ bounty on this feature, but I suspect
this might take quite some time to implement. There may be other people
interested on our tablatures mailing list:
