3/B/1/ Finding Guitar Pro files
Guitar Pro files are recognisable from their GP extension (7.x version),
GTP (1.x and 2.x versions), GP3 (3.X versions), GP4 (4.x versions), GP5 (5.x
versions), and GPX (6.x versions).
Version 7.x can open all of those Guitar Pro files, whichever version they were
made with, from version 1 and higher.
Except for a few examples illustrating Guitar Pro 7 possibilities, Guitar Pro 7 is
not sold with a built in free tabs catalog.
