I tend to use TeXworks, so will tcsh be necessary? If so, will I need always to switch shells for Cygwin, or set tcsh as default?
I had installed gregorio a few ways, but now I've deleted all of them and redone the Cygwin version, as I think I can manage with it. Again, the .bat files simply are not in the installation. Somehow I managed to find a gregorio.bat file in my User folder, so I loaded that into TeXworks and it all works. I still don't have the greg-book.bat or greg-lily-book files.
