TablEdit Users Say:

"One year ago I found Tabledit in the Internet. I downloaded it intending to delete it after a quick glance. When I tried the software I was so impressed that I brought out a guitar from storage to have a go. After thirty years playing classical music and the blues I became tired of reading music notation, I was never good at it. With the demo of TablEdit I played a piece in two days and wrote another piece in a few days, I was amazed with the software so I purchased it. The reason I bought the music was to avoid trying to sight read music. Using Tabledit has improved my speed reading music, I still use the music to get the timing in a new piece that I may download. I can’t say too much more except the people who manage Tabledit are attentive and honest, I lost my hard drive which was not backed up and the owners of the software sent me a new copy and this is the reason I am writing this letter, honesty and integrity are hard to beat."

Installing the program

To install TablEdit, you'll need to unpack the SIT file and place its component files on your hard drive. Unstuff the .sit archive into a folder of it's own (using Stuffit Expander 5.0+) and copy the TEF265.TTF True Type Font into the "\users\your name\Library\Fonts" folder.  
 
To run the shareware version of the program, double click on TablEdit Application in the Finder, or create an alias on the Desktop. No specific installation routine is required. The toolbar icons and the tool palettes in the main Tabledit window are very useful, as is this help file, for guiding you in the use of the software.
 
 
Keep in mind that the TablEdit Demo is a demo package with certain critical limitations. You can open and play a .tef file and modify the MIDI options to alter the sound you hear when you play the music, but DO NOT try to "re-save" the file when you are done listening to it. The demo version only saves 16 measures of tab, so you'll lose most of what you downloaded. If you want to print the file, go ahead and explore the page options available, tab or notation only, tab and musical stave, with or without chord diagrams, etc.  
 
Re-installation
 
In order to restore all of the default parameters, simply start TablEdit while keeping the [alt] key held down.
