Will, I personally think this is a good idea. Once we have the general books, placing that data into a Bible, once the library supports these books, will be trivial and systematic. Patrick, The library current uses a hardcoded static 'canon' of verses (defined in canon.h). To make the CORRE

For what it's worth, I was not aware that Sword did not support the Apocrypha as Bible modules... This strikes me as a serious shortcoming (especially for scholarly purposes.) Is this a simple fix? Patrick Thus spake "Will Smith"> : > Greetings. > I am very much interested in possibly making th

Greetings. I am very much interested in possibly making the Deuterocanonical/Apocrypha books available as General Book modules. I don't know if/when Sword will support the Deuterocanonicals as Bible Modules, so I thought it might be easier to make them available as General Books. Would

Chris Knox, You might be able to get a vpl file from the stepdump output. Not sure how good you are with a scripting language, but you could probably grep for lines with {\*\stepconcordanceon }\nosupersub which seem to preceed each verse that you want in vpl file. Rather than get the line

2002-11-04 Thread Troy A. Griffitts
From first thought, I would suggest keeping the single language tag that represents the primary module language, and add addtional AuxLang tags which represent other languages that are contained within the module. This will allow a frontend to select a unicode font with all pertinent pages pop

Hi all, I got 2 things to report/suggest. 1) The NA27U4 module does not seem to work for me with cvs bt and sword, although the correct key is set. Other modules (Afr1983) do. Can somebody verify this? Is this a sword 1.5.5 thing? 2) Lanugage issues. Atm there is only one config entry per modu
