TablEdit is a program for creating, editing, printing and listening to tablature and sheet music (standard notation) for guitar and other fretted, stringed instruments, including mandolin, bass and banjo (even taking into consideration the special aspect of the fifth string). TablEdit is further distinguished by its minimalized size and optimized code for speed of loading and running. TablEdit runs on Windows, Macintosh, and Windows Mobile (PocketPC).

Additionally, TablEdit, while designed for guitarists, by guitarists, is not limited to fretted instruments like other tablature programs. Through ongoing consultation with experts on other instruments, TablEdit has developed support for mountain dulcimer, harmonica, diatonic button accordion, angloirish concertina, drums, violin, tin whistle, recorder, xaphoon, native american flute, autoharp, pedal steel guitar, arabic oud...
