Dear Brother Noah

The way to quote in gabc must take into account that the text (the part that is not between parentheses, so not the notes) is redirected to LaTeX, where the quoting happens in another way.

So for opening double quotes, you have to write two grave accents (``) and for closing these, two apostrophes (''). Be aware: two apostrophes ('') and not a double quote sign (")!

When(h) they(h) stood(h) in(h) ranks(h) be(h)fore(h) God(h), Jo(h)shu(h)a(h) add(h)ressed(h) all(h) the(h) peo(h)ple,(g_) (;) ``If(h) it(h) does(h) not(h) please(h) you(h) to(h) serve(h) the(h) LORD(g_), (;) de(h)cide(h) to(h)day(h) whom(h) you(h) will(h) serve(h), the(h) gods(h) your(h) fa(h)thers(h) served(h) be(h)yond(h) the(h) Ri(h)ver(h) or(h) the(h) gods(h) of(h) the(h) Am(h)or(h)ites(h) in(h) whose(h) coun(h)try(h) you(h) are(h) now(h) dwe(h)lling(e_). (:) As(h) for(h) me(h) and(h) my(h) house(h)hold(g_), (;) we(h) will(h) serve(h) the(h) LORD.(e_)'' (:)

Kind regards.

Hello Gregorio Friends.  Blessed Queenship of Mary.  My monastic community sings all three readings at Holy Mass on Sundays and Solemnities.  I typically use the Meinrad font in MS Word to prepare the music for these readings, but I am experimenting with using Gregorio.  It looks pretty good expect for one important thing.  Whenever a text includes quotation marks, Gregorio prints the note but suppresses the text-syllable that accompanies it.  For example, look at the bolded sections in the following GABC document (compiled PDF attached).  Gregorio suppresses the words If and far, along with the quotation marks.  It also suppresses the quotation marks at the end of the quotations.  Is there a way to prevent it from doing this?  Thank you for your help!
