Chordpack is a tool written in Perl, whose purpose
is to typeset song-books/songs written in chordpro
format. The typesetting is done using
typepesetting system TeX using macro package
LaTeX. Chordpack has ambition to do whatever you
might want to do with songs in chordpro format.
Chordpack currently can generate LaTeX source of
songs/songbook, generate HTML version of
songs/songbook, generate ASCII version of
songs/songbook, generate ASCII version of
songs/songbook omitting chords, transpose
chordpro song to desired key, take ordinary
ASCII notation of song with chords, and output
almost chordpro version. Chordpack features
four styles of chord setting, three styles of song
titles setting, an option to chose one or two
columns, an option to chose fonts sizes,
on-the-fly transposition to a key with minimum
difficult chords (as an option), and other
features. Chordpack does not currently set chord
diagrams.
