Fairly trivial this, but I when I put (say) a [Bb] chord in a chordpro file, the b is shown as a b. Isn't there a way to show them as a proper flat symbol ♭ ??
Thank you

I can certainly look into trying to replace # and b with the unicode equivalents to see how it looks.

Unfortunately, the unicode characters render in a very unusual way with the default/standard font, so I can't easily support this (there is a large amount of empty space on both sides of the unicode character compared to the normal ascii character, and the flat symbols are too tall). I think I would have to use a font dedicated for this purpose, so that's something I can look into in the future.
