Thanks, Tao, but that's the Chord Name Chart I just mentioned. A longer
chart is here:
However, this chart is misleading. Take the case below.
<<
\new ChordNames { \set chordChanges = ##t \chordmode { a2:m7 b:9 c:dim7 d:13 } } \new Voice = "one" { \autoBeamOff
\relative c' { \key c \major \time 4/4 a2 b c d } } >> Notice that Am7, B9 and Cdim7 come out fine, but D13 appears as D9/add13.
What to do for A7b9? If you follow the Chord Chart and input "a:7/b9", you get
an error message calling it "spurious garbage following chord".
There should be a list somewhere, like:
a:min7 > Am7
a:aug > A+
??? > A7b9
LilyPond's chord name system seems OK up to a point, and I'd like to give
it a try first, though it could do with further polishing.
