Know how to program? Want to add new features to Tabster or have your plugin included in future releases of Tabster? Tabster is open-source, meaning you can easily contribute to the project on GitHub.
Programming not your forte? If you like, you can still contribute to the project by donating. Tabster is a project I started years ago for my own use out of frustration of having to work with cluttered tablature text files. I eventually released it publically after enough interest was shown in the project and work on it during my free time and have since distributed it freely. Donations are not necessary but are certainly appreciated.
