Xmcd Mcd Converter Info

Overview "xmcd" and "MCD" refer to two related formats and ecosystems for representing and exchanging chord charts, lyrics, and song metadata. xmcd is the XML-based source format used by the open-source chord/lyric editor "GuitarX/xcmd-style" tools (historically associated with the program xMCD/xmcd-like editors), while MCD usually refers to the (older) plain-text "MIDI Chord/ChordPro-like" or proprietary chord-chart formats used by various chord editors and show-control tools. A converter between xmcd and MCD (in both directions) translates structured XML representations of songs (with markup for chords, lyrics, sections, capo, tempo, metadata, and possibly multi-track/progression data) into the simpler, often line-oriented MCD text format and back.
