Further stuff written by memory from my hospital bed:
I myself developed a worksheet based editing environment so that Vince LaRue
has been able to start the big task of manually adding Strong’s to the Spanish
RV1865 (modern orthography) Source Text.
The WIP is in a shared folder in my Box account.
The pre-&-postprocessing uses bespoke TextPipe filters.
But there’s one more gain in the worksheet WPL environment.
Providing the WPL worksheet includes a column with line numbers, the text can
be sorted on the Word column.
This facilitated adding Strong’s to multiple instances of the same Spanish word
(ignoring context). The original textual order can be restored by a sort on the
line numbers column.
Much more detail is involved in how (eg) punctuation is dealt with and
preserved.
Even so, the trial run on 2JN was a success and Vince has since done MAT 1-11
or more when I last looked at the progress.
Aside: The same environment also facilitated adding markup for \wj_...\wj*
Best regards,
David
