Graduale Romanum in gabc
  • Greetings,

    I have finished transcribing the 1961 Solesmes edition of the Graduale Romanum into gabc. I'm still proofreading them, but I'm putting them here for anyone who wants them. I intend to provide 1908 Vatican Edition versions of the same Chants.

    Andrew.

    Andrew,

    I commend you for all your work. However, I don't see an attachment.

    Would it be possible to upload your attachments to a server somewhere? They always get broken when you put them as attachments. Few people will be able to use them like this...

    Echoing Ben ... or perhaps split into (untarred) smaller pieces?

    Andrew,

    I'd be willing to host them, if you need somewhere.

    I've posted a copy of the files here, with copies in zip format for folks who aren't used to tar-format archive files.

    Wow… this seems like a monumental effort! Very impressive!

    For those of us who haven't quite made it to the world of Tex — and who are doing GABC via the Gregorio interface instead — is there any way that you might recommend handling the .gabc files? Importing those files into Microsoft Word seems to yield a lot of funny characters.

    gabc files (like TeX files) are simply text (.txt) files. I edit such files in Notepad, not Word (nor Wordpad).

    For txt editing that is slightly more robust than notepad- try Notepad++.

    Any suggestions for a non-Word text editor for Mac, aside from TextEdit?

    for Mark M: Are you able to view the individual files at this link?

    If so, you can at least copy and paste the .gabc code into TextEdit or whatever.

    chonak: Yes, I discovered that earlier today! Thankfully, going directly to the individual files online (rather than downloading the whole thing as a zipped file) does not seem to yield funny mathematics characters. :)
