CTAN update: fretplot
by CTAN Announcements 18 Sep '25

18 Sep '25

Soumendra Ganguly submitted an update to the fretplot package. Version: 0.0.3 2025-09-15 License: lppl1.3 Summary description: Create scale and chord diagrams for guitar-like instruments Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Changes in this new version: 1. Copying code from some of the examples in the documentation pdf (doc_fretplot.pdf) also copied data from the figures on the right. The figures have been moved to the bottom as a fix. 2. On page 12 of the documentation pdf, copying the compilation command "lualatex --shell-escape amaj.tex" introduced an extra character (possibly a carriage return) in between the "lualatex" and the "--shell-escape amaj.tex". Two other instances of this compilation command were there in the pdf, and all three were generated using the same macro. This non-deterministic behavior is probably due to a bug in *TeX, or in the pdf reader (or some underlying library), or the pdf format itself. In any case, this was fixed by replacing the spaces in the macro with \,\,\, (3 instances of \,). 3. Overall polishing, restructuring, and improvements in the documentation. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/fretplot The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/graphics/pgf/contrib/fretplot/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
