Gnometab aims to be a WYSIWYG guitar tablature
editor. Its features include copying and pasting
of tablature passages, a chord library (which the
user must fill), the ability to create a variety
of tablature symbols specific to the guitar, and
clean-looking printed output. It does not attempt
to be "smart", i.e. it does not know how many
beats are in a measure, nor does it know an E
chord from an Am chord. Instead, the emphasis has
been on the appearance of the output.
