a few things:
1) are you sure you have the latest CVS. We fixed Rev yesterday in English.
2) I doubt the format of a Bible Book name like: TEXT 1. TEXT will parse
3) I think we could make this parse, and possibly your TEXT ROMNUM book names, but it will take more time. And we don't have that for the WWBS release. (and I doubt you'd want to wait longer to release BT).
The main problem, although it seems like these small tweaks might be easy, is that there are so many silly AI (if I do say so) rules in the parser that even small changes (like adding the '.' delimeter for book.ch.verse) seem to have widespread reprecussions on the other behaviour, as we have seen recently.
One day we'll rewrite that code and comment all the nuances, Lord willing, and make it easier to update for the next generation of Bible software engineers, but not before 1.5.6 :)
Again, thanks TONS for your help at this time critical moment.

thanks for the info. I think I got the point. =) However, German is not the only locale that has this kind of formatting. Others are cs, et, fi, hu, it, no, ru, uk. All of those would need to be updated, then.
All right. cs, de, et, fi, hu, it, no are now updated to include book names without number. It was a copy-and-paste operation and I hope that the locales are not broken now. Would be good to have them checked by their maintainers.
ru and uk do probably not need to be changed, they should work as-is.
The most interesting names were in et.conf: I Thessalonians=Pauluse 1. kiri tessalooniklastele Troy, please make sure even that would work without the dot now. =)
The german locale -- though updated -- does not seem to work for me atm. Entries like 1. Mose will fail. Please make sure it does work. That's why I could not test my changes at all.
Also, I got a problem with the english locale:
Song of Solomon and Revelation of John don't work, maybe because they`re 3 words??
And my personal wish would be that stuff like
"Ad Corinthios II 1:2"
would be made work as well with the parser. It is required for the latin locale (alpha stage) which might be interesting for parsing references in old books/the vulgata. Do you think that would be possible?
