When I downloaded htk toolkit on vista windows and tried to type some commands like HParse gram wdnet
The result was as following .what does that mean?
C:\htk\bin.win32>HParse gram wdnet
ERROR [+3110] InitScan: Cannot open Network Defn file gram
FATAL ERROR - Terminating program HParse
Or if I typed only the command without any options I got this result??
C:\htk\bin.win32>HParse
USAGE: HParse [options] netFile latFile
Option Default
-b output lattice in binary ascii
-c set V1.x compatability mode off

-A Print command line arguments off
-C cf Set config file to cf default
-D Display configuration variables off
-S f Set script file to f none

When I typed any command I did not got any result just errors?

>tried to type some commands like HParse gram wdnet
did you create a gram file as instructed in the HTK Book?
>Or if I typed only the command without any options I got this result??
>C:\htk\bin.win32>HParse
It is just telling you what options are available for the HParse command
>C:\htk\bin.win32>HDMan -m -w wlist -n monophones1 -l dlog dict beep names
do you have the beep dictionary in your path? The error messages give hints as what the problem might be...

A gram file is the grammar format for HTK. This web site describes how to create grammar files for Julius.
There is a tutorial at the front of the HTK book that describes how to create a gram file. From the HTK book, secion 3.1.1 Step 1 - the Task Grammar:
HTK provides a grammar definition language for specifying simple task grammars such as this. It consists of a set of variable definitions followed by a regular expression describing the words to recognise. For the voice dialling application, a suitable grammar might be
$digit = ONE | TWO | THREE | FOUR | FIVE |
SIX | SEVEN | EIGHT | NINE | OH | ZERO;
$name = [ JOOP ] JANSEN |
[ JULIAN ] ODELL |
[ DAVE ] OLLASON |
[ PHIL ] WOODLAND |
[ STEVE ] YOUNG;
( SENT-START ( DIAL <$digit> | (PHONE|CALL) $name) SENT-END )
where the vertical bars denote alternatives, the square brackets denote optional items and the angle braces denote one or more repetitions.

you need to create your grammar file with an editor (e.g. gedit)
