1. Within the MacSword project (great to see interest in MacSword--
it's a great project!) are there native tools that would handle
imp2mod or vpl2mod? Or do we all have to use the win32 tools?

The tools should be able to be built on a Mac. You will need to
obtain and install icu and lucene. Since Mac OSX is a version of Unix
and has GNU's compilers, you can follow any of the discussions on
this mailing list on how to build them.

As of this past summer, DM's statement was tried and true. I was able
to build both the latest stable as well as the svn versions of sword
by just popping into a terminal window and running ./usrinst.sh with
make and make install (I tried it both with the .sh wrapper and the
../configure directly - both worked fine).

Great! I would like to build the latest stable version myself, but
unfortunately I need some instructions. Could you point me to a place
where I can learn what I need to learn to be able to build it myself?
Thanks!

You need the Apple Developer Tools installed. This is a CD which ships with your Mac or with a bought Mac OSX system.
On this CD are all tools needed to compile, link, ...

Normally you download sword from here:
http://www.crosswire.org/ftpmirror/pub/sword/source/v1.5/ sword-1.5.9.tar.gz

untar with:
tar -xzf sword-1.5.9.tar.gz

cd to this directory:
cd sword-1.5.9

configure the environment and giving a prefix path:
./configure --prefix=/opt/sowrd-1.5.9   (for example)

make and make install to the given prefix directory:
make && make install

This works on my Mac OSX 10.4.8 PPC system.



God bless,
Manfred
