A limitation, not a major one. And better than the current situation.

Ok, that seems to work with BPBible now. However, it also seems to hard code
the path to libsword's dylib to be in the build directory, which could be a
problem (though I don't know too much about this linking stuff on MacOSX):
otool -L _Sword.so
_Sword.so (architecture i386):
/Users/benm/builds/
I would have thought that such a mapping was a fundamental part of support
for alternate versifications. Until the mapping is there and available
through the library in some way, front ends cannot link between Bibles with
different versifications: cross references can only work for one

Our ICU transliterators include a Pinyin transliterator, allowing the
user to switch between Han and Pinyin. It wouldn't be especially
difficult to write a filter to put the transliterated text in ruby.
The transliterator table is fairly good, I believe, and sometimes looks

It's not quite as simple as working with the fully spelled out names.
SWORD allows other alternates as well. For example, perhaps the

I think the fundamental problem here is that the SWORD reference parser is
too simple. Namely, the parser needs to not blindly split on a hyphen
character but rather tokenize the input stream and contextually determine
what each token is as it processes the tokens in sequence. For example, if I

I must confess that to make JSword perform a little better and due to lack

Thanks for helpful clarification.
The look-up concept I was trying to describe would always be unidirectional.

Although Pinyin can also be used as a text entry method, I did not consider
that as a feature needed for any of the SWORD front-end applications.

All of this discussion about whether the hyphen is the proper

whether it can only be punctuation is probably interesting. But it's
probably not interesting to Robert,
