The purpose of Feature is not to provide info to the user, but rather the engine or front-end. It’s incidental that it is informational to the user. > On Nov 3, 2017, at 3:18 PM, David Haslam wrote: > >> Nothing needs to be specified in the conf to note that a module has soft > hyphens. > >

> Nothing needs to be specified in the conf to note that a module has soft hyphens. Not for functionality, but to inform the module user, it would be sensible to announce: Feature=SoftHyphens Some front-ends list the module's features. cf. Copying from the displayed text might still include th

Re: [sword-devel] Text preparation for searching in SWORD [was: Soft hyphens]

David, When Troy changed the subject line, he detailed the new strip filter for soft-hyphens and hooked it up to the normalizer for search requests. It will be part of the upcoming release. Nothing needs to be specified in the conf to note that a module has soft hyphens. It was to this thread t

Re: [sword-devel] Soft hyphens

Hi Cyrille, I am preparing to study breakpoints for Cebuano to produce a hunspell hyphenation list, but haven't completed the process of implementing it. I am working from 3 paper Cebuano bibles typeset at different times, and manually copying the existing hyphenated words into a list. Here's my

Re: [sword-devel] Soft hyphens

It becomes a bit difficult for me to follow this post with all these technical terms in another language :-) :-( But what I can tell you is that I am very interested in a hyphenation dictionary. I have already created a spelling dictionary for kikongo , an

Re: [sword-devel] Text preparation for searching in SWORD [was: Soft hyphens]

Thinking further in the context of small screens... If in future we were to build a module that included soft hyphens by design, then we really would need to specify two things in the .conf file: 1. Feature=SoftHyphens 2. LocalStripFilter=RemoveSoftHyphens We do need to say something to ensure t

Re: [sword-devel] RC - odd bug, diatheke, lookup, probably engine rather than utilities.

Of course, those references that "work" might not necessarily be correct. Parsing native references in a cross-reference note is a very challenging programming task. Just because a reference lands somewhere valid within the v11n doesn't mean it's the place the translator intended. But I agree wi

Re: [sword-devel] Soft hyphens

I had similar thoughts as Michael outlined. This morning, I compiled an Excel workbook tabulating the Lingala words found to contain a soft hyphen. It has been attached to the issue in the GitLab repo. https://gitlab.com/lafricain79/LinVB/issues/10 And - yes - it's not only incomplete as a dict

Re: [sword-devel] SWORD 1.8.0RC4

Is anyone visiting the CrossWire tracker to update the SWORD API issues that will be fixed by this release? Does the RC4 include a fix to the UTF8GreekAccents filter? cf. That filter was seriously at fault in that it removes characters from non-Greek text too! Best regards, David -- Sent
