README
Author: Ondrej Fafejta <fafejtao@gmail.com> Website: https://github.com/fafejtao/pmxChords Pmxchords extends the PMX preprocesor for musixtex to output chord notations over the notes. The syntax for chord symbols is as inline tex commands in the .pmx file. e.g. \ch.C.\ c44 e \ch.G7.\ d2 | \ch.C.\ c r / PMX supports key transposition and the pmxchords.lua script is used to transpose chord symbols accordingly (and then call pmxab as usual to generate a .tex file). From version 0.3, the pmx2pdf script in the PMX package supports a -c option to use pmxchords (and then pmxab) as the preprocessor (rather than pmxab directly). For installation and usage, see the pmxchords-install document. pmxchords is licensed under the GPL version 2 or later. This README was edited by Bob Tennent (rdt@cs.queensu.ca). ChangeLog: version 2.0.2: 2014-04-21 fixed transposition problem: If song began in E-minor and signature is changed in half of song to A-minor transposition must be omitted. version 2.0.1: 2013-12-13 Fixed: - pmxchords.lua now loads correctly the ChordsTr module to make it work on Windows systems. - pmxchords.lua does not remove the temporary file pmxaerr.dat that is required by Bob Tennent's pmx2pdf script. version 2.0.0: 2013-12-09 - rewrite code from perl to lua. version 1.0: 2012-03-16 - first version written in perl scripting language
