Hi Jaak, You're new here. The Zefania/Haggai/True Sharp Sword/Free Scriptures people are not. They've been "competing" with us for over a decade. Their "competition" consists of ripping off content in violation of licenses and trolling sword-devel. There's a program somewhere that uses Zefan

A further thought... Might it be feasible to permit to define the variant delimiter markers somewhere within the conf file? i.e. As replacements for whatever we decide to use as defaults. David -- View this message in context: http://sword-dev.350566.n4.nabble.com/OSIS-Variants-do-we-need-a-d

Hi Timothy, I haven't built SWORD for a few years, and don't 100% remember how to build it. However, in answer to your questions, I did use Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition to build for Windows as it was always going to match best with the standard Windows Python 2.6/2.7 build. I think I used a

Hi Jaak, I've been around CrossWire for quite a few years without actually being part of the official group, so I think my opinion might be helpful here as I don't have any turf to defend (CrossWire regulars: please chip in if I'm misrepresenting anything). On Tue, Feb 25, 2014 at 7:18 PM, Jaak R

[sword-devel] verse position problems

Hello! Hopefully someone can point me in the correct direction. I am working on a New Testament written in a RtL language. The XML validates, and as far as I can tell the OSIS formatting is correct. BUT, whenever I generate a module using osis2mod, and any combination of -z and -v (I tried them

Where are you seeing this problem of verse placement numbers? Some of the frontends have problem displaying verse numbers in the right place with RtoL text. Otherwise, I think it is a problem with your text. The verse number will be placed where the element starts. If you put a elements such

Apparently, this module was created by an earlier version of osis2mod. Back in the day, content between verses was assumed to be only titles. Those were pulled out and placed at the beginning of a verse and marked with subType="x-preverse". The rest of the non-title content was assumed to be pa

When you run osis2mod it displays the version number. What is it? You might be using a version that does not handle paragraph markup between verses. Otherwise: I think this may be solved in Bible Desktop, where we use arabic numbers so they flow with everything else. Can you give that a try. You
