TablEdit Users Say:

"I've been playing guitar for over fourty years and I must say that TablEdit is one of the best programs for for learning songs at your own pace.You can take a midi guitar song,import it and have it write the tabulature for it. You can print out the tabs and BAM! It's there right in front of you to start learning to play the song. This program is fantastic for learning those finger picking songs that are so mysterious to figure out.I only wish that this program was around when I started playing guitar."

The dialog called up by the selection of {Score}{Notes...} allows you to append a relatively long text to your tablature files (playing instructions, historical comment, etc.). This can be particularly useful for teachers as it affords them the opportunity to go into more detailed discussions of playing technique, hand movement, etc. than may be possible by the simple display afforded by the tablature, itself. The dialog also provides ample room for detailed copyright and discographical information. Such information should always be provided, if available.  
 

For quick editing of the text, the dialog can also be opened by clicking on the extreme right of the "Info" zone of the status bar at the bottom of the TablEdit window. If the file already contains such notes, this is indicated by the display of the letter "N" in the status bar.  
 
 
 
The "Print notes" check box allows you to specify if the notes should be printed out with the tablature.  
 
To the right of the "Print notes" check box you'll see a row of four "radio" buttons. These allow you to select the type of justification that should be used when printing the notes out. The four options are:  
 
L = Flush Left (straight left margin, "ragged" right margin)  
C = Centered  
R = Flush Right (straight right margin, "ragged" left margin)  
J = Justified (straight right and left margins)  
 
Below these are two more "radio" buttons allowing you the option of printing the notes out either before or after the tablature.  
 
[File] (the button with an icon that looks like a little folder) allows you to import the text to be used in the main part of the dialog from an external text file. Just click on the button and select the source file using the file selector.  
 
[<<] allows you to toggle back to the "Title Information" dialog.
