Chord Library Explorer
The chord library explorer allows the creation of collections of chords.
Each chord is named by the chord's full quality (not including the root).
This applet is about 100k in size and may take up to one minute to load over modem connections.
You can create new chords by pressing the "new chord" button.
Existing chords can be edited by selecting them in the list and pressing the "edit chord" button.
Unfortunately the "load library" and "save library" functions do not work in the applets due to Java's security restrictions.
You can always download the package and run them as applications if you want to create your own libraries.
You can browse the source for the ChordLibraryExplorer and ChordLibrary.
The window that pops up and allows you to edit a chord is simply a ChordExplorer window, so reviewing the previous demo of the ChordExplorer may also prove insightful.
