Let me check. I've been re-doing this download and may have screwed something up, even though I had tested it in all 5 popular browsers.

Thanks for letting me know. I am in the middle of giving guitar map it's own web page and had already moved the files to it's own folder and forgot to update the link.

It's fixed now.

I have finished a little manual on how to download, install, and use Guitar Map. It will be ready to download later today or tomorrow.

Try editing the default.scl file. That is where chords are defined. Try it, it should work. If not, just change it back.

Seems Windows can't work with this file ext. :( I'm running Win 7. When you ask for a minor, does it display as a b3 or a #2?
Thanks! dave

Dave. Sorry for the late response. Been really busy. The default.scl file is just a text file. You can open it up in Notepad. In Windows Explorer, right click on the file name, choose "open with", and select Notepad.

I've never really noticed how a minor is displayed. The program might have been written to display the b3 as a #2. I don't think that can be changed.
