I've some questions on usfm2osis.pl. Does usfm2osis.pl process USFM \q quotation marks? Bibledit converts them to paragraph marks, but I would be keen to keep them as quotation markup in the osis file, if possible.
If usfm2osis.pl does keep the quotation markup without converting it into paragraphs, there is another problem, which was why I've gone down the bibledit route instead. It hasn't worked for me or for Daniel Owens in Windows. Is there a known issue with it? I downloaded it on 9 Sept 2009 from http://crosswire.org/ftpmirror/pub/sword/utils/perl/usfm2osis.pl It takes less than a second to process, and results in an 8-line Osis xml document which consists of only a header. The script processes and comments: Endoding "utf8" is supported. Processing USFM/*.sfm. Doing some cleanup. Tagging quotations. All done! OSIS file: bible.osis.xml Thanks John Duffy -----Original Message----- From: Peter von Kaehne [mailto:ref...@gmx.net] Sent: 26 October 2009 19:07 To: SWORD Developers' Collaboration Forum Subject: Re: [sword-devel] Questions about usfm2osis.pl I add support for markers as I need them and Chris does the same only at a more accomplished level. Others do the same. At the core usfm2osis.pl is not something written into stone but needs adaption as per texts encountered. For someone like me with still miniml Perl knowledge the important part is that it is there as a good structure allowing rapid addition when required. Most USFM markers appear to have corresponding OSIS markup, even if not by necessity in a direct 1:1 translation marker -> tag.
