(you might notice a lot of geeky stuff about “word lengths” and “standard deviations” - ignore this, part of my tuning process) whether it only recognizes “standard” chord names such as Bm or Cadd9 or Gaug, or should the formater allow people to have chord names like “ G-superDiminishedAdd9“?Īllowing flexible chord names means, for example, that it’s more likely to accept two C chord voicings: standard, first position and then second position (or or ). This is still very much a “beta” tool I’m still trying to “dial in” how forgiving I want my song formater to be, e.g. and something.” because you probably wanted this: “. You know this, I know this, the tools? Not so much. Don’t put blank lines between a chord line and its lyrics (unless you want a line of only chords) Chord liness immediately precede their lyrics.If a converter is confused and mixes none-chords into your lyrics add some separation, that is, put some blank lines in. So eschew Times or Arial and use the old stand-by, fixed-width fonts (monospaced) such as Courier or Courier New. Every font, yes, even Comic Sans, has its moment, and when your aligning by columns you need every character to be exactly the same width - something our old Smith-Corona typewriters always did. To your editor they might mean “indent the equivalent of 6 single space characters” whereas on my machines it’s always 4! Since we’re relying on fixed-width columns you need to use spaces.
