I added the path to the gregoriotex directory and the path to gregoriotex.exe to the path secton and ran texhash. Still no go at this point none of the alternatives is very good. I either reformat and restore my windows to factory settings and re-install all my software and hope that the Gregorio install works, go back to lilypond, or forget trying to do anything with chant. Probably the third is the most likely route I will take. I just did a complete re-install of windows and do not want to go there again for another year or 2. Lilypond suffers from lack of support for Gregorian Chant. As far as I can tell Gregorio has the potential to be a very nice piece of software, but lacks any support. When the code is at version 2.2 and the only installer is for version 1.1 and doesn't work half the time that says to me that this is not anywhere near ready for prime time. The only viable alternative I see at this point is to forget trying to do anything with chant notation.

I thank you and the rest of the list for your willingness to try and help.

Mr. McKenna,

No, when I installed Gregorio, it did not configure Texworks for me - in fact, the installer failed every time on that installer option. So I opened Texworx and configured it myself.

Now, I installed texlive to c:\texlive, and gregorio to c:\texlive\gregorio

Open up the texworks editor, go to Edit>Preferences>Typsesetting.
Now adjust all the paths here to match your configuration.

You have to manually add to this Typesetting list, the directory for:
c:\texlive\gregorio\tex

Make sure you have copied the gregorio\tex directory to
C:\texlive\texmf\tex\latex or C:\texlive\texmf-local\tex\latex
and ran the command:
texhash which loads the directory into the configuration.

Brother Gabriel-Marie;
I followed your thread on the list with great interest however the problem I am facing at the moment appears to be different. With this installation all the file copies appear to be done correctly and I can make the changes to the gregoriotex.tex file and run updmap with no problems. What is happening is that the Gregorio installer is not updating the TeXworks editor to recognize Gregorio as a compile option thus not allowing me to even begin to compile the gabc files. I can recompile the PDF files from the main.tex and <name>.tex, but it does encounter some errors. Below are the errors.

Mr. Mckenna,

Have you tried the steps I took to install Gregorio under Windows 7? I used XP for a long time. I don't see that anything would be different at all.

My Windows 7 Gregorio thread starts here:http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg01086.html

But I have a nice solution posted here:
