Here is a partial solution, it does not support all type of chord 
symbols (see
comments in the main script).

The main script is chord_translator.rb, it contains the 'chord' API and 
also
translates chords when run from the command line.
Usage: ruby chord_translator.rb {chord-symbols}

Example:
>ruby chord_translator.rb C Cdim7 Am F#+7
C => C E G
Cdim7 => C Eb Gb A
Am => A C E
F#+7 => F# A# D E

The chord_translator_test.rb file contain tests validating the currently
supported chord symbols and also presents the APIs implemented by
chord_translator.rb.

The other scripts are files for the GUI version of the tool, they use 
the
current trunk version of Swiby (a layer on top of Java/Swing) and need 
jRuby.
(the first two scripts can run with any Ruby interpreter)
The startup command is: jruby -I<swiby-trunk>/core/lib 
chord_translator_ui.rb
(chord_translator_ui.rb contains the GUI definition and the GUI logic - 
pretty
basic -, score_painter.rb paints the musical notation - staff - and 
styles.rb
defines the CSS-like styles of the GUI). It uses a font to draw the 
musical symbols, downloaded from 
http://simplythebest.net/fonts/fonts/musical_symbols.html

The attached ZIP-file contains all the scripts and an image file 
presenting a run of the GUI version.

Regards to all...
