    I often have a difficult time deciphering what chords I am playing (on
    keyboard) to describe to guitarist. Is there a proggy out there that
    simply can input the notes of say, a triad and it spits out the chord
    name?
    Thanks for any and all help

    It's like, we need a tool where you can enter words that describe
    what you're wanting, and it will give you back pointers to things
    that may match your idea.

    Oh, wait. We do.

    It's called Google.

    Next to last link on the first page seem to be an online version
    of what you're looking for.

    As a music educator, I have some sympathy for you, but wouldn't you
    rather learn how to do this? It's not very difficult. A book would do
    it. But almost always, the chord is first named after its root,
    meaning, you can find the bass note on the keyboard, by ear, that
    seems right as the bottom note. Then, with just a modicum of theory
    knowledge, you can figure it out. Software would be, in my view, a
    total copout.
