HARMONY can now import, from abc, chord names embedded within aligned lyrics like this (must be in SQUARE brackets) w:[F]Oh That I could [Bb]hear the bi[F] rds again The chord will be aligned to the same note as the following word (oh, hear, rds in the example) You can then just run the note generation (tools menu) and hear the tune with chords. |

(By standard I really mean ABC+ and abcm2ps, the latest implementation of the evolving standard.) I'm familiar with using quoted chord names in the note lines and then synchronizing the lyrics (small w:) with the notes but I don't recall seeing the bracket-within-lyrics coding associated with ABC before. - Mark |
