Can anyone recommend a shareware, or other, programme for tabulating folk tunes for our band. We could just do with tidying up some of the current handwritten ones.

What exactly do you mean by 'tabulating'? If we knew, it would help!

Assuming you're meaning a way to print music notation and/or tablature, you might take a look at the (fairly) recent thread on Subject: Music Annotation Software Question

Notation and Tab software has been discussed in a number of threads, but this was the first one I hit with a quick look.

While we await opensource software - its comming folks - it appears there are several limited use packs all of them Windoze friendly - but and here is the catch they will demand a payment after a set time.

Since these programs are being rewritten all over the place often by kids - surprise - enabling us to easily create SW for GUIs like Windoze; it is not so much whether but when such software will be 100% free.

In a way it is inevitable, the internet is now about what we do with it rather than how we do it!

Bloody TablEdit--I swear by it. It's a pain, isn't it, when they give these things away and then expect you to pay for them? I've been using the same set of strings on my guitar for twenty-five years because the mean git who sold it me won't had over a replacement set gratis.

TablEdit -- I swear by (and occasionally at) it.

Seriously, its one of the few that will do Mt. Dulcimer tab as well as guitar, fiddle etc. And the playback function is a great way to proof your work. Plus its only $50 bucks, and once you're registered upgrades and help are free.
