To create a working module for testing purposes there is no need to use the compression step.
The only further requyirement is to create a conf file. To do this copy any existing working one over and adjust the settings : name, path, module driver etc. Peter -------- Original-Nachricht -------- > Datum: Tue, 3 Nov 2009 10:46:20 -0000 > Von: johndu...@cgcf.net > An: "\'SWORD Developers\' Collaboration Forum\'" <sword-devel@crosswire.org> > Betreff: [sword-devel] Problem understanding wiki > Hi, > I'm trying to understand how to convert an osis file to a functioning > module > in a Sword frontend.
