Hi.

Replacing or removing the wrong line endings shouldn't be a big problem.
A simple Perl script would do the trick.

For fixing the "misspellings" we would need to know which they are.

Btw: I tried to generate the OSIS source from PorAA with the mod2osis tool.
Unfortunately the tool crashed with a memory allocation error.
I do not have much experience with sword itself. Did I do something wrong?
This is the output:

Deeparsal:~/.jsword asrael$ /opt/sword-1.5.8/bin/mod2osis PorAA<? xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

Hi!

I had already noticed that strange characters that Manfred talks about in JSword. I would like to help correct the problem (and I know that it will take time). As I have no expertise in programming, can anyone help me and teach me how can I do that? I believe that we could simply use a search and replace tool to fix the problem of the ending verses, but I don't know how to get to the source. Maybe one of you guys can get me the source and I'll try to work on it.

But, if someone out there has the expertise and wants to do the work himself I can just help to test things up.

Someone a couple of days before suggested that we contact crosswire in order to know if they are preparing a new portuguese module. Has anyone done that? If not, can anyone do it or how can I do it?

Thanks,
Jónatas

Hi Jónatas.

I did a bit of research and found out that each verse ending has two strange characters which are no UTF8 characters. These characters prevent MacSword from indexing UTF8 instead of ASCII. In MacSword I removed the characters for each verse on indexing and it worked.

I also tried BibleDesktop on the module and there you can see the strange characters (see screenshot below).

What we could do is remove the characters from the source (OSIS?) - if they are in the source - and generate a new sword module.


Best regards,
Manfred

Hi Manfred,

Sorry about my ignorance, but: Is it hard to change the original encoding of the module?

Hi Jónatas.

Yes, that's right. This is an encoding problem. The bible text is encoded as ASCII text and then searched although the pattern string is UTF8. But ASCII is not very usable for any language with special characters.
I'll have a look at it in the evening...

Hi Manfred,

The search can now be used, but there is a problem to it: it doesn't search the characters that have diacritic simbols (like ´`~^). So, if I try to search Amós (it's portuguese for Amos, the difference is only the "ó") it doesn't find any occurrences. I tried it with other words like geração (generation) and doesn't work either.

Here it is.

Please download at:
http://www.software-by-mabe.com/download/MacSword.app.zip

There still are some bugs with this module. For example if you do split the view with more bibles then the text of the PorAA module is not displayed.

Please let me know of any problems.

Best regards,
Manfred

Hi Manfred,

Yes, please send me the new file and I'll test it. (But I must say that I'm not a programmer, so my testing will only be useful to tell you about my experience).

Hi Jónatas.

I found a bug that caused the app to crash on indexing the module PorAA. But I couldn't reproduce the crash on re-starting the app with an open book of PorAA.

This is no official version but you can have it for testing if you want. Please let me know.


Best regards,
Manfred

Manfred, dere goes the crash report's log.

<MacSword.crash.log>

Hi Jónatas.

Thx for the link. I downloaded the module already.

Yes, the crashreports would help.


Best regards,
Manfred

Hi Manfred,

The module is in the Module Add-ins in the crosswire website: http://www.crosswire.org/sword/servlet/ SwordMod.Verify?modName=PorAA&pkgType=mac

The app crashes EVERY TIME I use the search engine but NO, the app ALSO CRASHES many times if I leave the module open, quit the app and then re-open it.

If you want, I can e-mail you the crash reports. Can I do it to the list or should I send it privately? (can you give me your e-mail?)

Thks,
Jónatas

I use MacSword and Will (the developer) made some changes to the search engine that make it much better, but, due to the problems in the PorAA module, I can't use it because it causes the App to crash. Maybe if you can send me that files you talk about I can correct the module (or you can send me the corrected module). At the moment I am unable to search within the PorAA module and the program keeps crashing a whole lot of times, almost always because of that module. If I don't use the module at all, most times I work for hours without a single problem, if I start to use it, I start to have problems.

If you can give me a link that I can download the module I can try to trace down the bug, if it has to do with MacSword.
The app only chrashes when you use the search engine?


Best regards,
Manfred
