[sword-devel] Overriding "options.conf" properties with "MOD.conf" properties

2007-12-29 Thread RLRANDALLX
All, I did not get much response in pointing out a problem with morph codes linked to an LD module. I understand that Hebrew Morph codes are in the works but the problem is really in the LXX module since "GreekParse" is set to "Robinson" in the global "options.conf" yet "Packard" is needed for

[sword-devel] BibleCS and Farsi

2007-12-29 Thread peter
Having finally had a chance to look at the new version of BibleCS and the FarsiOPV module two problems come to light: 1) the letters are not ligated ("glyph shaping") This works fine in Arabic which uses a very similar script - largely same looking letters but different unicode range. 2) The text

I added it to the page long, long ago, but I couldn't give the details exactly of why. Personally, I have no interest in updating all of the existing .confs to add the install size, and have no desire to do it on an ongoing basis as part of the release process. If we can add it as an automated

Karl, I'm not sure I remember every hearing about this. I wonder who added it to the page. If the size of the module needs to be know, I would rather have a method call in the engine that uses the transport to compute the size. Actually, I think this is already done, because the windows ins

Barry, Commentary drivers are smart to skip contiguously linked verses. Instead of key++, use module++ and you will skip to next unique entry. Hope this helps. -Troy. Barry Drake wrote: > Hi there ... > > I was aware that we currently don't handle 'linked verses' properly, but

Hi there . I want to put a test in the module installer in case anyone doesn't read the instructions and puts the binary in their PC Sword directory. If they run it in there, they are going to delete all their installed modules on exit! I'd normally look for mods.d, but if the install

Hi there ... I was aware that we currently don't handle 'linked verses' properly, but had not realised that there were any publicly available modules that uses them. Until this morning. I was looking at Calvin's commentary: I think that's a public module? That makes heavy use of them. T
