[sword-devel] Problems in new WEBBE and WEBME but not WEB

2012-01-24 Thread Martin Denham
Hi,

In the new WEBBE and WEBME using Bible Desktop and And Bible there are a
lot of \wj* and \wj strings.  The following example is taken from Matthew
24 verse 1
 buildings of the temple. \wj*  2But he answered them
and there are 1 or 2 of the above strings in every verse of Matt 24.  I
have not noticed any in Old Testament books but haven't looked hard.

Best regards
Martin

Thanks Martin,

As these two newly released modules are in CrossWire Main, we should create
an issue in CrossWire Bugs (JIRA).

These are USFM tags for Words of Jesus.

By a lot, you mean 718 instances of \wj_ (where underscore denotes a space),
and the same number of \wj* which is the closing tag.

I'd hazard a guess that the module was made from an OSIS file supplied by
Kahunapule Michael Johnson, and that his own script used to convert USFM to
OSIS has not processed these tags. After all, we know that usfm2osis.pl in
our own utilities handles these tags correctly.

We know that last year he made the decision to adopt USFM as the controlled
source text format for all the translations that he maintains, whereas he
was earlier maintaining the source texts in another format.  Perhaps
somewhere along the line of moving in this direction, this is something he
overlooked?

If we were to download his USFM files, and perform our own conversion to
OSIS, this problem should be solved. That's not to say we might not
introduce other problems of our own making, though!

Best regards,
David Haslam

Is there a reason he doesn't use usfm2osis.pl?

I've not asked him that directly, but my reply to Martin was copied to KMPJ,
so we should presently received a considered response.

2012-01-24 Thread David Haslam
The .conf files state, History_3.0=Initial release; text from 2012-01-11;
version synced [sic] with other editions of WEB (2012-01-18).

Perhaps this may indicate the the synchronizing process is faulty or done
at the wrong stage?

2012-01-24 Thread Chris Little
I'll attend to it. The reason for WEBBE/WEBME being different from WEB 
is that the former have newlines that usfm2osis.pl is apparently not 
addressing. I was pretty sure this was all fixed, but maybe I used the 
wrong version of usfm2osis.pl, in the end.


And, as David points out, JIRA is the right place for this report (and 
all of the succeeding discussion).
