One more thing: I created markup instructions for contributors to the
Abbott-Smith project. You can get a quick overview of how we have marked
it up:
https://github.com/translatable-exegetical-tools/Abbott-Smith/blob/master/Instructions_for_Contributors.md.
One other thing you are likely to want to remove is <pb>. This is mean
to preserve page numbering in case someone wants to create a module that
is easy to cite. But that is a lower priority for me.

Best I can tell, it doesn’t work because the Strong’s number isn’t zero filled
and I’ve not found any support for Strong’s numbers that aren’t padded.
To rebuild the module, we have to change the Strong’s numbers from G1 to G0001,
G2 to G0002 and so forth. It was a nice idea to have the Strong’s numbers and
the Greek words as separate entry. It’s not practical, especially since they
are fully accented.
To create a module from the TEI source (Thank you Daniel for the work you’ve put into it. I see that
you are a major contributor.) one needs to cut the <entry>…</entry> out of the file into
it’s own file, then run that through tei2mod. There’s a bug in all of the TEI dictionary modules where
the <entry …> is not in the module, but </entry> is. tei2mod should have kept both or
dropped both.
If I were to make the module, I’d use xslt to transform the xml. The one thing that I think
is missing in the entry is the word. It is represented in the <orth> element, but it
is not the same. I also find it odd that there is a leading <note> with the number of
occurrences in the NT. I’ve not looked at the pdf to see where that came from.

This module has never worked, as far as I can tell. I never was able to chase

attention to this, DM.
Now the source file has many corrections to the markup and data
(https://github.com/translatable-exegetical-tools/Abbott-Smith/blob/master/abbott-smith.tei.xml).
So I suggest a new module needs to be made.
However, it has been a long time since I have been able to successfully compile
and test a TEI module. If someone has time and expertise to do this, I would be
grateful because the TEI lexicon module creation cycle is a series of mysteries
to me.

Well, I’ve created a new Windows 7 VM and installed the KJV and also

As far as I can tell it loads but doesn’t work in Xiphos. I show Strong’s in the
KJV. Click on a number, any number and I get the same entry. As far as I can tell
it is the last entry. Once I get there, clicking the up and down arrows on the
dictionary will make the program crash. (I can deliberately, reliably repeat the
crash.) The dropdown list contains >, G1, G1, G1, …., which is wrong. If I
manually search for a number by prefixing it with a G, I’ll get the entry,
indicating it is linked.
I’m running the Windows version that I just downloaded from the xiphos.org
<http://xiphos.org> site.

Betreff: [sword-devel] AbbottSmith module question
The AbbottSmith module has excellent content. I’m having some problems getting
it to work in any SWORD or a JSword front-end (due to bugs in JSword).
I’m wondering how it is supposed to work in a SWORD front-end.
It is keyed to Strong’s numbers. Each Strong’s number begins with the letter G
and is followed by the number, but not padded. These are sorted as:
*blank key*
G1
G10
G100
G1000
G1001
….
G2
G20
G200
….
and so forth.
(The first two entries in the modules are bugs, probably in the module making
utility. But that is another issue.)
Each of these entries is linked to the entry for the corresponding Greek word.
These are fully accented words. In the index they are sorted according to their
upper case representation. They follow the entries beginning with G.
In my Windows VM, I’m not able to get the KJV to show up in either Xiphos or
The SWORD Project for Windows. (Others have reported this problem. And I’m not
interested in “going there.”) As such I can’t determine if I were to use
AbbottSmith as a Greek Strong’s Dictionary how it would or if it’d work.
In Him,
DM Smith
