Thanks Carl!
Alas, that document is for version 2.11 and I am on Ubuntu 64bit and only have
\version "2.10.33" ...
I guess that's why the code you sent me, which looks like exactly what I need, failed, like this:
$ lilypond -b eps ex-04.ly
GNU LilyPond 2.10.33
Processing `ex-04.ly'
Parsing...
ex-04.ly:24:0: error: unknown escaped string: `\storePredefinedDiagram'
\storePredefinedDiagram \chordmode { c1:7sus4 }
Is there a solution in version 2.10 or can I get 2.11 and build it for my 64bit Ubuntu platform?
I really appreciate all this help, just the pointer to the learning manual was a big help. I never would have found it on the Lilypond.org site, strangley...
Thanks for taking such good care of us noobies.
By the way, I've laready started on a lisp front end to make it easier to automate the construction of the ly files!
Ciao,

It's easy. You want to use the FretBoards context for your FretBoards.

If you haven't read the Learning Manual for 2.11, please do so -- it'll help
you.
If you have, you can learn more about the guitar functions in the Notation
Reference, under the section on Fretted Strings.
Thanks,
Carl
