Ok, that worked. :-)
Thank you. It wasn't clear to me from the wiki that you have to create
all those levels of structure at the "server" end. It certainly didn't
mention the mods.d folder that I remember.
Blessings,
Robert.

Hi Robert,
I'm no modules expert, but I have a nice little pic I did for
someone a few months ago with the structure of a module.
take a look and see if that helps? Note that the folders may be
named differently, but the "modules" and "mods.d" folders are always
named the same and should be on the same folder level as each other.
Hope that helps! ybic

I've had fun with a USFM New

However, I can't get Xiphos (on Ubuntu) to recognize either the
compressed or uncompressed module when I add a local folder name and
then choose it. The Modules Install/Update tab remains totally blank. I
suspect my conf file is the problem -- either the placement of it or
the contents of it.
I'm trying to follow instructions in
http://www.crosswire.org/wiki/DevTools:confFiles.
1/ Should the config file be placed in the same folder
as
the .bz* files? (I can't see that the wiki tells me where to put the
file.)
2/ Does the DataPath directive indicate where to *find* the module
files (relative to the conf file), or where to *put* them?
3/ Would you expect me be able to navigate in the Xiphos Module Manager
to any old local folder where I created my module (like I'm trying to
do), or do I manually have to copy my module into
.sword/modules/texts/ztext/?
4/ Can you see anything wrong/missing in my skeletal matigsalug.conf
file -- this is the one for the compressed module:
[Matigsalug]
DataPath=.modules/text/ztext/matigsalug/
Description=Matigsalug Scriptures
ModDrv=zText
CompressType=ZIP
BlockType=BOOK
Direction=LtoR
SourceType=OSIS
Encoding=UTF-8
Abbreviation=MBTV
Version=0.9
Category=Biblical Texts
LCSH=Bible.
Lang=mbt
5/ Is there something else I could be doing wrong? I'm sure it's
probably something very simple. :-)
Thanks,
Robert.
