Import From ChordPro... and Text... not working

[solarpete]

Hi, I just downloaded and installed softChord 0.9 Win from sourcefore and unfortunately the import from ChordPro and Text features don't work without giving any error message. I even tried to import files created and exported with the tool and got the same result (nothing). Otherwise thumbs up with the tool, it looks good ;-)

Edit:
After closing the application I noticed a message about log file where I found the reason for this issue: I tried to open file called "Bláznova ukolébavka.chordpro" and the non ASCII characters (and/or space) seem to be a reason for my problems (see the attached log file). After renaming the file both of the import features worked correctly.

Hi there!

Thank you for the report. I know softChord has some bugs in it, but unfortunately I don't have time to work on it at all. I would happily accent pull requests for fixes from anyone who wants to donate their time to this project though. Thanks!

Hi,
you're welcome! I would be glad to contribute, but my knowledge of Python is very limited at the moment. But hopefully sometime in the future this will change and I will be able to help.
And thanks for developing the tool!
