Introduction This is a proposal for a nabc input syntax. It should enable users to type the neumes of all types of manuscripts, including: * St Gall * Laon * Benevento * Britanny (Chartres) * Aquitana The idea is to have a syntax that will enable the description of all possible glyphs in all possible notations. As you will see, the syntax is quite complete and not all

Latest features of Gregorio markup This markup allows to set in red the text between and . For example, with (c3) ab(gh) cd(gh) ef(gh) the text of the second syllable will be coloured. By default, the color is the same as the red lines, but you can change it by redefining the gregoriocolor color (see its definition in gregoriotex.sty).

Troubleshooting Gregorio Installation If you get this message: ``missing gregoriotex.sty file`` Then you installed Gregorio with an old version of Gregorio. You need to install at least version 2.3. Look here for the downloads.

Troubleshooting It is inevitable. Tex is such a monster that you are going to have troubles of one sort or another. Here we can collectively have an archive of the most common solutions! &&Note that with the console open, most of the time you can either push ``enter`` when the console printout pauses with a message to skip over the error or warning and just continue, OR you can push ``Q`` to just finish the script in silence. Either way you will see the resulting PDF.&&

tweaking_your_chant_output

Tweaking your Chant Code There are some tweaks that cannot be done in gabc code, and must be made, instead, in your tex file. Remember that if you include these in your “main” tex file, then they can be included in all of your scores. If you just want the tweaks in an individual score, then first run your gabc through Gregorio, and then place your tex tweaks in the resultant tex file.

Extended Glyphs used in Chant Text Every glyph (character) has a corresponding codepoint in the unicode table of all the possible glyphs in a font. This table will both provide you with the character that you can copy and paste, as well as the unicode codepoint.

Using Macros in gabc You can use tex macros right in your gabc scores. Here is why you would want to do that: * You need a certain effect for just a particular score and you don't want to change your tex template for just one production. * You need a particular effect on just one part of your score, or maybe just one note. You can't effect this in your tex template.
