Elie,
Ah, I suppose the reason for using a script in the
installation rather than just having the installer do the
work (no script necessary) of installation is to aide in
allowing other folks to contribute.
I don't mind giving it a try, but I know even less about lua
than about python. The python script seemed easy enough to
cypher. Also, there may be some peculiarities of the
texlive's font-directory requirements that I may have
ignored in my successful installation. But I don't use
texlive for anything else, so I don't know if what I did
would cause problems in other places. I can delineate what
I did, but I don't feel confident to rewrite the
installation script.
However, as I get used to gregorio, things might become more
clear to me. I'm not going to promise anything at this point.
I'm not sure the installer runs the lua script at all. NONE
of the gregorio files made it into the texmf-local directory
- none of them.

Dear Brother,
I've created a nice question over on tex Stack Exchange,
with a detailed explanation:
http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/103517/texlive-and-gregorio-manual-font-installation/103535#103535
Do you know whether the installer runs that script?
In fact I was wrong, the installer
(http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/gregorio/trunk/windows/gregorio.iss?view=markup)
runs a lua script
(http://svn.gna.org/viewcvs/gregorio/trunk/windows/install.lua?view=markup)
to do the same thing as the python script. It might seem a
bit strange, but it was to be able to install gregorio
without python. As we can expect people to already have
luatex installed, it's this program which is used for
installation. A unified installation script (in lua) would
be good I guess...
So in fact it's the install.lua file you should patch, not
the python file, sorry if I made you lose some time!
(well, if you learned python, it's not really lost!)
Also, I see that the gregorio installer is older than the
latest gregorio 2.2 release...
This is something I'll try to work on in a near future...
I'll keep the list informed...
Thank you,
