Re: Stand alone guitar chord diagrams

In my course documentation I will need a flexible means to generate
chord diagrams. I would be greatly surprised that Lilypond could be used
for this but perhaps someone has experience with this and would make a
suggestion as to what I might use. I'm running Linux and would prefer
something open source.

Something like this (very simple)?

\version "2.16.2"

\markup {

  \fill-line { \bold "Major chords in first position" }

}

\markup {

  \fret-diagram #"6-x;5-3;4-2;3-o;2-1;1-o;"

  \fret-diagram #"6-x;5-o;4-o;3-2;2-3;1-2;"

  \fret-diagram #"6-o;5-2;4-2;3-1;2-o;1-o;"

}
