+\section{Tablature}
+Tablature is a notational system used for fretted stringed instruments such
+as lute, guitar, banjo, mandolin, and so on. Staff lines represent strings
+and conventional note heads are replaced by numbers (or sometimes letters)
+indicating which fret is to be stopped, with $0$ representing an open string.
+
+A special clef symbol
+\keyindex{tabclef} may be used with \verb|\setclefsymbol| for a tablature staff; commands \verb|\setlines|, \verb|\setsign|
+and \verb|\setsize| may be used as usual for a tablature staff. The macros that put numbers (or letters) on staff lines
+are as follows:
+\begin{itemize}
+\item \keyindex{tab}\verb|{|$n$\verb|}|\verb|{|$p$\verb|}|
+puts $p$ on string $n$
+(counting from top to bottom); $p$ is centered, using \verb|\ccharnote|.
+Ledger lines are added for $n$ less than $1$ or greater than the current number of staff lines.
+\item \keyindex{ltab}\verb|{|$n$\verb|}|\verb|{|$p$\verb|}|
+uses \verb|\zcharnote| so $p$
+spills to the right and
+\keyindex{rtab}\verb|{|$n$\verb|}|\verb|{|$p$\verb|}|
+uses \verb|\lcharnote| so $p$
+spills to the left.
+\item \keyindex{ztab}\verb|{|$n$\verb|}|\verb|{|$p$\verb|}|
+is a non-spacing \verb|\tab|, and can be used for building chords.
+\item \keyindex{zltab}\verb|{|$n$\verb|}|\verb|{|$p$\verb|}|
+is a non-spacing \verb|\ltab| and
+\keyindex{zrtab}\verb|{|$n$\verb|}|\verb|{|$p$\verb|}|
+is a non-spacing \verb|\rtab|.
+\end{itemize}
+A size-dependent font \keyindex{tabfnt} is used for tab characters; Helvetica is the default font family.
+
+The default tablature style is to place the fingering notations \emph{on} the staff line;
+Postscript specials are used to ``blank'' staff lines below
+the tab characters.
+If it is desired to locate the fingering notations \emph{above} staff lines, use
+the command \keyindex{tabstylespacetrue}.
+A size-dependent font \keyindex{tabstringfnt} is defined to allow string names to be
+listed using \verb|\setname|.
+
+Here is an example of a guitar tablature (6th string lowered to D):
