I think that I'm once again clear of David's issue list for the Tok Pisin Bible, with the exception of releasing an update to Haiola. My development copy has essential fixes for OSIS generation that the current published version lacks: better placement of verse end markers and correction of a serious bug in handling the USFM tag \vp*. (\vp ...\vp* doesn't even get converted, since Sword doesn't yet handle that feature, but the bug ate some text.) I have regenerated all of the public Scripture source files at ftp://ebible.org/pub/Scriptures, and the updates are uploading, now. (Look for a fresh file date to see what has been uploaded so far.)

I'll follow with the release once I finish up a couple of other things that I'm working on in Haiola and do more testing. I'll see if I can get that done before DH once again reminds me of my fallibility. :-)

Shalom,
Michael

Thanks Michael,

I knew that you'd be on to it. My message was just to keep the rest of us au
fait with the situation.

The USFM file for ESG does not have the omissions observed in Michael's own
OSIS XML file.
The latter was converted from the USFX files using Haiola.

So some attention is required on how the USFM => USFX transformation works
for ESG.
Or it may be a weakness in Haiola?  Either way, we need to find a way
forward.

As regards matters arising from using usfm2osis.py on the downloaded USFM
files,
these are explored in detail on our tracker.  See

Best regards,

David
