Indigo Song Book

The overall goal of this project is to create songbooks with:

Exact chord placement.
Electronic songbooks.
Automated index/TOC creation.
Automatic layout (i.e. shuffling songs around, so that they fit nicely on the page).
Automatic formatting for verses and choruses.
Some kind of documentation, so others can pick this up in the future.

Syntax For Song Files

Chords are indicated in square brackets, within the text. e.g. [G]I love [Em]God...
Chorus is marked by {start_of_chorus} and {end_of_chorus}.
Verses are separated by a blank line.
Text that is not sung (e.g. marking part 1, part 2) is marked by {comments: text}.
