Thanks, Trevor.
Custom Tablatures was a section that I didn't edit; my contributions
were limited to the Fret Diagrams section.
Jonathan, as I worked on the FretBoards material, I came to understand
the fret assignment algorithm a bit. Would you like me to take on
this section, or would you prefer to respond to Trevor's concerns?
Thanks,
Carl
