Great. Right. The final things I had on my to-do list for this release: Renaming the __u64 style macros to something like SW_u64. Merging the Windows FileMgr patch you have been keeping for Xiphos into something build configurable. A large refactoring commit I have locally which completes the c

Re: [sword-devel] Localisation of front-end apps

The transifex figure of 0% strings translated for English (United Kingdom) seems rather bizarre to me. Even if And Bible were deemed to have been written in English (United States), that would still make little sense. And we know that our friend Martin Denham is British. Even so, it's also app

No, The DBG wanted to discourage sharing of license keys by creating unique keys per user and embedding some part of the user's name in the key to let them know their identity will be known if they share.  It is not enforced to any particular OS login or anything. Some of this delay is my fault.

This sounds like a problem with (at least the Windows version of) the osis2mod compiler that I complained about years ago, where it does not link all verses in a verse range to the commentary article. For some reason I can't find those messages in my archives. I'm thinking that Build 3431 (64-b

Re: [sword-devel] Not user-friendly behavior in commentaries (should be continuous)

Thank you for the clarification and help. Don't duplicate: As Fr. Cyrille has pointed out, SWORD supports entry linking. So, you don't need to duplicate anything, just supply all the verses to which an entry should be associated. That's exactly that I expected (avoid duplication and use entry

Re: [sword-devel] Not user-friendly behavior in commentaries (should be continuous)

As David has said, please be careful about your syntax between osisID and osisRef. osisID="Gen.7.17-Gen.8.5" is invalid. This would be a valid osisRef. osisIDs are how you assign text to a verse entry in SWORD. osisIDs do not take ranges; they take lists. Don't duplicate: As Fr. Cyrille has poi

I think modules should faithfully reflect the text and not contain any hacks. Bugs in presentation are then firmly owned by the engine or any frontends which may or may not be deficient.   Insofar as most frontends look at Bible texts by chapter (with or without additional easy scrolling) it see

Re: [sword-devel] Not user-friendly behavior in commentaries (should be continuous)

Thanks for the answers. Some advise to duplicate the commentary for every verse (Ps.23.1, Ps.23.2, Ps.23.3, etc.) and some said it is a frontend issue. I am still a bit lose and disappointed for the end users. I don't understand why for commentaries, the OSIS reference "Ps.23-1.5" is not the
