Chordpro

A ruby parser for the chordpro song file format. It converts songs in the chordpro format like this…

{title: You Are My Sunshine}

{c:Verse 1}
[G]The other night dear as I lay sleeping
[G7]I dreamed I [C]held you in my [G]arms
[G7]But when I a[C]woke dear I was mis[G]taken
So I hung my [D7]head and [G]cried

{c:Chorus}
{soc}
You are my sunshine my only sunshine
[G7]You make me [C]happy when skies are [G]gray
[G7]You'll never [C]know dear how much I [G]love you
Please don't take [D7]my sunshine a[G]way
{eoc}

…to HTML, which can be styled to look something like this…
