Great info, thanks David! I have code in there to cover the Psalm ascriptions, but I'll check vs. the sources you mention to be sure I've got them all covered. The Slavonic book order difference is new to me -- many thanks for pointing it out, I'll add an option for that.
Side note -- i'm presently hacking at some code to convert a bunch of online bibles to very regular OSIS files, which I'll then put online somewhere (Troy, might you want to host them?). Anybody up for helping with that or taking a look at results as I produce them? (I wrote osisCheck mostly to ensure that my converters don't screw anything up....). >Date: Tue, 16 Sep 2008 09:33:08 -0700 (PDT) >From: David Haslam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: Re: [sword-devel] New OSIS chapter/verse checking utility >To: [email protected] >Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Take account that the Psalms are numbered differently in various canons.
