The first +part of my requirements is now more than fulfilled by \texttt{leadsheets}, +which provides all the tools for putting together chords and lyrics. +For the second part I found that there were only two relevant existing +packages: \texttt{guitarchordschemes}\autocite{guitarchordschemes} +and \texttt{gchords}\autocite{gchords}. Neither of these achieved +exactly what I wanted, so this package is my own attempt at providing +that tool. + +Note that I am far from a \TeX{} guru; I know a bit of \LaTeX{} and +also have some familiarity with \TikZ{}, so I have gratefully used +the higher level interfaces provided by said package as well as \texttt{xifthen}\autocite{xifthen} +and \texttt{xstring}\autocite{xstring} for inspecting arguments. +The \noun{pgf}/\TikZ{} packages provide a powerful and versatile +framework for creating vector graphics using \LaTeX{} commands paired +with a special drawing syntax. One advantage of this is that you can +fully integrate graphics into your document that will always look +great: they will use the document fonts and can be rendered at any +size you desire, avoiding some issues associated with the use of external +images. This does not come without a cost, however; although the syntax +introduced by \TikZ{} is concise and easy to read, composing images +will require some thought, multiple commands and adjustments and can +be labour-intensive. Also, there is simply so much functionality that +the official manual\autocite{pgfmanual} currently spans almost 1200 +pages of dense, though amply illustrated information. + +The main aim of the present package is therefore to provide a way +of typesetting chord diagrams using \TikZ{}, while sparing the user +from the need to plough through its documentation to learn the required +drawing syntax. It does this by defining two commands that require +only a few arguments and encapsulate the necessary drawing instructions. +Their basic usage is introduced in Section \ref{sec:Usage}, along +with examples illustrating the various possibilities. Further information +needed by the drawing algorithm is stored using \noun{pgf}/\TikZ{}' +native key-value management system, which also makes it quite easy +to expose settings for modification by the user, allowing you to influence +the appearance of the resulting chord boxes. These are documented +in Section \ref{sec:Settings}, with some examples of the commands +you can use to change them. + +\subsection{Loading the package} + +\texttt{chordbox} currently does not support \LaTeX{} options, so it +is loaded simply by putting + +\texttt{\textbackslash usepackage\{chordbox\}}\\ +in your document's preamble. + +\subsection{License} + +This file is part of chordbox. Chordbox may be distributed and/or +modified under the conditions of the \LaTeX{} Project Public License, +either version 1.3 of this license or (at your option) any later version. +The latest version of this license is in \url{http://www.latex-project.org/lppl.txt} +and version 1.3 or later is part of all distributions of \LaTeX{} version +2005/12/01 or later. + +Chordbox has the \noun{lppl} maintenance status `maintained'. The +Current Maintainer of chordbox is Steven Franzen. + +\section{Usage\label{sec:Usage}} + +The package provides two similar commands, \texttt{\textbackslash chordbox} +and \texttt{\textbackslash bchordbox}. The latter extends the former +to draw barred chords. + +\subsection{The \texttt{\textbackslash chordbox} command} + +Syntax: \texttt{\textbackslash chordbox{[}}\textlangle \emph{base +fret}\textrangle \texttt{{]}\{}\textlangle \emph{chord name}\textrangle\texttt{\}\{}\textlangle \emph{fret +positions}\textrangle\texttt{\}} + +The simplest form of the command requires you to specify only the +\textlangle \emph{chord name}\textrangle{} and \textlangle \emph{fret +positions}\textrangle . The former can contain any text and math symbols +(see below), the latter should be a comma-separated list of elements, +one for each string, which may take the following values: +\begin{itemize} +\item \textlangle \emph{fret number}\textrangle {[}:\textlangle \emph{fingering +text}\textrangle {]}\\ +A (positive) \textlangle \emph{fret number}\textrangle{} marks the +current string as fretted at that position. It may optionally be followed +by a colon and a \textlangle \emph{fingering text}\textrangle{} that +can be displayed on the fret symbol or below the chord box. +\item \emph{0} (zero)\\ +Marks the current string as open (unfretted). +\item \emph{Anything else}\\ +An empty element or one starting with anything other than a number +marks the current string as muted (not played). +\end{itemize} +It draws a grid resembling vertical strings crossing horizontal frets, +with a black bar at the top figuring as the instrument's nut. The +number of strings drawn is determined by the number of \textlangle \emph{fret +positions}\textrangle{} passed to the command, so generating chord +diagrams for different instruments is no problem: +\begin{center} +\begin{tabular}{ccc} +Ukulele & 5-string banjo & 6-string guitar\tabularnewline +\texttt{\small{}\textbackslash chordbox\{Am\}\{2,0,0,0\}} & \texttt{\small{}\textbackslash chordbox\{Am\}\{x,2,2,1,2\}} & \texttt{\small{}\textbackslash chordbox\{Am\}\{x,0,2,2,1,0\}}\tabularnewline +\chordbox{Am}{2,0,0,0} & \chordbox{Am}{x,2,2,1,2} & \chordbox{Am}{x,0,2,2,1,0}\tabularnewline +\end{tabular} +\par\end{center} + +The number of frets drawn is initially 4, but this can be changed +through the configuration key \texttt{\ref{key:numfrets}}. + +As mentioned, you can optionally provide fingering information for +a chord, which is particularly useful for writing chord charts and +other training materials. Because text on the fret symbol has to be +scaled to fit inside it and the default scale is small, \texttt{chordbox} +is initially configured to put this text below the strings, where +it can be rendered at a larger size. However, the other option may +be more appealing for larger diagrams, so both options can be used, +see \texttt{\ref{key:textbelow}} and \texttt{\ref{key:textonnode}}. +They are illustrated below, where the letter T is used for the thumb +and the digits for the other fingers, starting at 1 for the index +finger. The larger chord box on the right has been given a scale of +2.5 times the default. +\begin{center} +\begin{tabular}[t]{cc} +\multicolumn{2}{c}{\texttt{\small{}\textbackslash chordbox\{F\}\{1:T,3:3,3:4,2:2,1:1,x\}}}\tabularnewline +\chordbox{F}{1:T,3:3,3:4,2:2,1:1,x} & \pgfkeys{/chordbox/.cd,text on node=fingering,text below=none} +\tikzset{chordbox/.append style={scale=2}} +\chordbox{F}{1:T,3:3,3:4,2:2,1:1,x}\tabularnewline +\end{tabular} +\par\end{center} + +By default, the \textlangle \emph{chord name}\textrangle{} is processed +by a command that typesets it in math mode and roman type (see \texttt{\nameref{key:name}}). +This allows the use of math symbols like \texttt{\textbackslash flat} +and \texttt{\textbackslash sharp} as well as the \textasciicircum{} +(superscript) operator to typeset decorated chord names: +\begin{center} +\begin{tabular}{cc} +\texttt{\small{}\textbackslash chordbox\{B\textbackslash flat m\}\{x,x,x,3,2,1\}} & \texttt{\small{}\textbackslash chordbox\{F\textbackslash sharp\textasciicircum\{maj7\}\}\{2,x,3,3,2,x\}}\tabularnewline +\chordbox{B\flat m}{x,x,x,3,2,1} & \chordbox{F\sharp^{maj7}}{2,x,3,3,2,x}\tabularnewline +\end{tabular} +\par\end{center} + +For best results, make sure to select the same typeface for both text +and math typesetting. Of course, if you are also using the \texttt{leadsheets} +package, you could opt to use its \texttt{\textbackslash writechord} +command for typesetting chord names, see also subsection \ref{subsec:Other-keys}. + +The \textlangle \emph{base fret}\textrangle{} is the number that, +although formally an optional argument, must be provided for chords +extending past the number of frets in the chord box. It is used to +position the box and fretted notes relative to this fret, for example +\texttt{\textbackslash chordbox{[}6{]}\{D\textbackslash sharp m\textasciicircum\{7\textbackslash flat +5\}\}\{x,6,7,6,7,x\}}: + +\chordbox[6]{D\sharp m^{7\flat 5}}{x,6,7,6,7,x} + +As can be seen, the nut is not drawn in these cases. + +Finally, \texttt{chordbox} can also display the pitch of each note +in a chord, although the default is not to. The pitches do not need +to be specified manually, but are determined from the fret positions +given to the command and the configured tuning (\texttt{\ref{key:tuning}}). +Just like fingering information, you may choose to display it inside +the symbols or underneath the chord box, or combine both types of +information: +\begin{center} +\begin{tabular}{rccc} +Command & \multicolumn{3}{c}{\texttt{\small{}\textbackslash chordbox\{D\}\{x,x,0,2:1,3:3,2:2\}}}\tabularnewline +\midrule +Scale & default & 2.5 $\times$ larger & 2.5 $\times$ larger\tabularnewline +\texttt{text on node} & \texttt{none} & \texttt{pitch} & \texttt{fingering}\tabularnewline +\texttt{text below} & \texttt{pitch} & \texttt{none} & \texttt{pitch}\tabularnewline +\midrule +Result & \pgfkeys{/chordbox/text below=pitch} +\chordbox{D}{x,x,0,2,3,2} & \pgfkeys{/chordbox/text on node=pitch} +\tikzset{chordbox/.append style={scale=2.5}} +\chordbox{D}{x,x,0,2,3,2} & \pgfkeys{/chordbox/.cd,text on node=fingering,text below=pitch} +\tikzset{chordbox/.append style={scale=2.5}} +\chordbox{D}{x,x,0,2:1,3:3,2:2}\tabularnewline +\bottomrule +\end{tabular} +\par\end{center} + +Chords may of course feature accidentals on some or all of their notes, +depending on their associated musical key. Typesetting such pitches +clearly in limited space is more challenging than just single characters, +such as finger positions. With \TikZ{}, text is most conveniently +positioned using so-called \emph{nodes}, which can also be scaled +to display their contents at any size. This leads to the following +two possible choices: +\begin{enumerate} +\item Scale the nodes to the chord box, so they are always as large as possible +without overlapping; +\item Do not scale the nodes, but choose a fixed font size for the text, +small enough to avoid overlap at the chosen scale. +\end{enumerate} +The first option has the advantage that overlap is precluded entirely, +but the node text is scaled as well and will therefore need to be +changed to a size near that of the unscaled node. Additionally, the +scaling operation is a purely graphical transformation, which yields +worse results than selecting a similar font size in the first place. +This is because a well-designed font has different (namely slightly +thicker) glyphs for smaller sizes to maintain readability. The second +option instead has the disadvantage that a font size must be chosen +manually and calibrated to the size of the chord boxes one wishes +to render. However, because documents will not usually contain chord +boxes of many different sizes, I consider this to be a minor point +and have, at least for now, chosen the second option. The font size +initially configured specifically for pitch names below the strings +is \texttt{\textbackslash tiny}, which should produce readable results +even for the default chord box size. + +\subsection{The \texttt{\textbackslash bchordbox} command} + +Syntax: \texttt{\textbackslash bchordbox{[}}\textlangle \emph{base +fret}\textrangle \texttt{{]}\{}\textlangle \emph{chord name}\textrangle\texttt{\}\{}\textlangle \emph{fret +positions}\textrangle\texttt{\}\{}\textlangle \emph{barre frets}\textrangle\texttt{\}} + +As mentioned, this command is for drawing barre chords, for which +it requires an additional comma-separated list of fret numbers. A +thick line is drawn over the string symbols at these frets. The other +arguments are identical to those of \texttt{\textbackslash chordbox}, +see for example \texttt{\textbackslash bchordbox\{Bm\textasciicircum 7\}\{x,2,4,2,3,2\}\{2\}} +and \texttt{\textbackslash bchordbox{[}3{]}\{C\}\{x,3,5,5,5,3\}\{3,5\}}: + +\bchordbox{Bm^7}{x,2,4,2,3,2}{2} \bchordbox[3]{C}{x,3,5,5,5,3}{3,5} + +\section{Settings\label{sec:Settings}} + +Because \texttt{chordbox} relies on \noun{pgf}/\TikZ{} for drawing, +it makes sense to use the powerful \noun{pgf} key management system +that comes with it. Therefore this package stores its code and style +settings as keys, some of which may be modified to customise the output. +This can be done in the preamble or in any part of the document by +means of \texttt{\textbackslash tikzset} and the more generic \texttt{\textbackslash pgfkeys} +command. Some examples of usage will be given below, but for more +reading about \noun{pgf} keys and their handling please refer to Section +82 of the \noun{pgf} manual\autocite{pgfmanual} where everything +is documented in full detail. In any case, modifying a key stores +its value for the \LaTeX{} group where the command is issued and its +child groups, which can override it again, but it does not propagate +up to parent groups. + +\subsection{\TikZ{} keys} + +The items described in this section are called \emph{styles} in \TikZ{} +terminology and contain (lists of) keys and values that can be applied +to various drawing commands. Most importantly, the \texttt{chordbox} +style applies to the whole \texttt{\{tikzpicture\}} environment of +every chord box produced. The default setting is to scale all coordinates +by a quarter, because the drawing is done in \noun{pgf}'s ``natural'' +units that, though convenient to use, result in an impractically large +picture. Note that this scaling only influences the \TikZ{} coordinates; +in particular, fonts are not affected by default\footnote{This is because text is put in nodes, which are scaled independently +of the picture and require the \texttt{scale} and/or \texttt{transform +shape} options to be supplied.}. + +Because these keys are all stored in the \texttt{/tikz} path, it is +most convenient to change them using the \texttt{\textbackslash tikzset} +command, for example \texttt{\textbackslash tikzset\{chordbox/.style=\{scale=0.4, +thick\}\}}. Setting options like this through the \texttt{.style} +\emph{key handler}, as it is called, replaces any previous contents. +Other handlers, like \texttt{.prefix style} and \texttt{.append style}, +can be used to insert additional keys before or after the existing +style, respectively. For example, calling \texttt{\textbackslash tikzset\{chordbox/.append +style=\{scale=2\}\}} results in an effective \texttt{chordbox} style +of \texttt{\{baseline, scale=0.5\}}, because the \texttt{scale} factor +was set twice. These are special in that multiple values are multiplied +together, whereas for most other keys only the last occurrence applies. +\begin{description} +\item [{/tikz/chordbox}] \hfill{}(style, initially \texttt{\{baseline, +scale=0.25\}})\\ +This style is applied to every \texttt{\{tikzpicture\}} environment +produced by this package. The \texttt{baseline} key sets the base +line of the picture at a height of 0 pt, which is the top of the grid +and the bottom of the nut (if drawn). It ensures that multiple chord +boxes in a row align properly. +\item [{/tikz/fret~node~text}] \hfill{}(style, initially \texttt{\{font=\textbackslash Large\textbackslash bfseries,text=white\}})\\ +This style is applied to text drawn on fretted or open string nodes, +with the colour switched to black for the latter. It aims to make +the text as clear and as big as possible without increasing the node +size, which will occur if the text is too tall or wide. +\item [{/tikz/pitch~text~below}] \hfill{}(style, initially \texttt{\{font=\textbackslash tiny\}})\\ +This affects only pitch names typeset below the chord box. The initial +setting is \texttt{\textbackslash tiny} to keep neighbouring notes +with accidentals from overlapping each other at the default scale. +\end{description} +The rest of the styles define the three symbol shapes used for the +fretted (\tikz[chordbox,above]\coordinate[string=fretted];), open +(\tikz[chordbox]\coordinate[string=open];) and muted (\tikz[chordbox]\coordinate[string=muted];) +string positions. +\begin{description} +\item [{/tikz/string/base}] \hfill{}(style, initially \texttt{\{circle, +draw, inner sep=0, minimum size=20, transform shape\}})\\ +Common options for all three symbols. The \texttt{transform shape} +option is required to correctly scale the symbols, which are implemented +as \TikZ{} nodes, with the rest of the picture. +\item [{/tikz/string/fretted}] \hfill{}(style, initially \texttt{\{string/base, +fill\}}) +\item [{/tikz/string/open}] \hfill{}(style, initially \texttt{\{string/base, +above\}}) +\item [{/tikz/string/muted}] \hfill{}(style, initially \texttt{\{string/open, +cross out, minimum size=19\}}) +\end{description} + +\subsection{Other keys\label{subsec:Other-keys}} + +The following keys are not passed directly to \TikZ{} commands, but +used to store various other settings and code. They are all in the +\texttt{/chordbox} path and should be set using the \texttt{\textbackslash pgfkeys} +command, for example \texttt{\textbackslash pgfkeys\{/chordbox/name/.code=\textbackslash writechord\{\#1\}\}}. +Keys that execute code, like this example, produce output with occurrences +of \texttt{\#1} replaced by the relevant value. If you want to change +more than one of these settings at once, it is shorter to issue a +command like the following: \texttt{\textbackslash pgfkeys\{/chordbox/.cd, +numfrets=5, fingering text=on node\}}. +\begin{description} +\item [{/chordbox/numfrets\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}=\textlangle }}\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\emph{\small{}number}}}\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}\textrangle }}\namedlabel{key:numfrets}{/chordbox/numfrets}}] \hfill{}(initially +\texttt{4}) \\ +The number of frets drawn in each chord box. +\item [{/chordbox/base~fret}] \hfill{}(initially \texttt{\{fr\textbackslash raisebox\{.5ex\}\{\textbackslash scriptsize\#1\}})\\ +This key stores the code used to typeset the base fret position of +a chord box, if provided and greater than 1. +\item [{/chordbox/name\label{key:name}}] \hfill{}(initially \texttt{\textbackslash ensuremath\{\textbackslash mathrm\{\#1\}\}})\\ +The code that is used to typeset the name of the chord. +\end{description} +The next two keys govern the placement of extra information in the +chord box. In both cases, the \texttt{fingering} text is only displayed +if actually present in the input. +\begin{description} +\item [{/chordbox/text~below\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}=none|fingering|pitch}}\namedlabel{key:textbelow}{/chordbox/text below}}] \hfill{}(initially +\texttt{fingering})\\ +Selects what to display below each string. +\item [{/chordbox/text~on~node\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}=none|fingering|pitch}}\namedlabel{key:textonnode}{/chordbox/text on node}}] \hfill{}(initially +\texttt{none})\\ +Selects what to display inside the string symbols. +\end{description} +The remaining keys determine how pitch information is calculated and +displayed. Pitches should be given enclosed in quotation marks and +accidentals should be specified as \texttt{b} (flat) or \texttt{\textbackslash\#} +(sharp); these will be replaced by their respective symbols. +\begin{description} +\item [{/chordbox/flat~symbol\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}=\textlangle }}\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\emph{\small{}symbol}}}\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}\textrangle{}}}}] \hfill{}(initially +\texttt{\textbackslash flat}) +\item [{/chordbox/sharp~symbol\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}=\textlangle }}\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\emph{\small{}symbol}}}\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}\textrangle{}}}}] \hfill{}(initially +\texttt{\textbackslash sharp}) +\item [{/chordbox/pitch~names\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}=\textlangle }}\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\emph{\small{}list~of~pitches}}}\texttt{\textcolor{black}{\small{}\textrangle{}}}}] \hfill{}(initially +\texttt{\{\textquotedbl A\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl A\textbackslash\#\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl B\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl C\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl C\textbackslash\#\textquotedbl ,\LyXZeroWidthSpace\textquotedbl D\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl D\textbackslash\#\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl E\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl F\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl F\textbackslash\#\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl G\textquotedbl ,\textquotedbl G\textbackslash\#\textquotedbl\}})\\ +The names of the pitches to be used for display.
