+RandomChords 2.1.0
+
+The purpose of the program is to generate random chords to inspire music
+creation. It can generate chords from 4 to 13 notes, with or without
+clashes and repeated notes. All the 7 notes scales matching the chord
+notes will also be generated and displayed. You can listen to the
+resulting chord and scales through the built-in play function.
+
+- Settings -
+
+Number of notes - This is the number of notes you want the chord to
+contain.
+Input a number from 4 to 13. The default value is 4.
+
+Repeated notes - Input a number from 0 to 13 to determine how many notes
+can be repeated in the chord. The default value is 0.
+
+Clashes - Input a number from 0 to 13 to tell the program how many
+clashes (notes at one semitone distance) the chord should contain. The
+default value is 0.
+
+Lowest interval - The lowest interval between notes expressed in number
+Of semitones. Accepts values from 2 to 11. The default value is 2.
+
+Highest interval - The highest interval between notes expressed in number
+of semitones. Accepts values from 3 to 11. The default value is 7.
+
+If the program cannot find a chord with the parameters you have set, it
+will try 10,000 combinations, then modify the parameters by increasing
+the number of clashes and repeated notes allowed, then try 10,000 more
+combinations.
+

+The chord and the matching scales will also be displayed in the history
+Window (below the Chord and Scale boxes), in the following format:
+
+0  clashes allowed
