Function Reference
ARGUMENTS:
  - ch1 chord [default = (quote (6000))]
  - ch2 chord [default = (quote (6000))]
  - fct fct [default = (quote sum)]

Description:

Transposes the chord <ch2> (a single chord in midicents) so that its
intervallic distance to <ch1> (also a single chord in midicents) is as
small as possible. Thus the distance between each note of <ch2> and each
note of <ch1> will become as small as possible. This is essentially the same
as the box 'best-inv' except the ordering of <ch2> is preserved.

The optional argument <fct> allows the choice between two different
algorithms for calculating this function,'sum' and 'max'. The default
is sum because 'max' may produce quarter-tones from semi-tone input. For
best results one should experiment with both and chose according to the
context.
