Yes, it is pretty easy to crash Xiphos,
right now. Oops.
For testing purposes, the repo under construction is: Repository name: eBible.org Access method: FTP Server and directory: eBible.org/pub/sword User name: anonymous Password: (blank, or fill in any email address. If you don't want to use yours, use sw...@ebible.org.) This repository is slightly experimental right now, in that we might change module names, and plan to adjust versification used by modules to be more optimum before going fully live and public with it, but I recommend that developers test to see if they can handle the size of this thing, now and over the next few days. The repository is growing rapidly. Within 24 hours, it should have all Bibles at https://eBible.org/Scriptures/ as Sword modules, both in regular and zipped versions, if all goes well. We are aiming for all 7,102 living languages (a number subject to adjustment as language surveys are done), so hard coding a number less than that limits the life of your code. Realistically, we might not pass 3,000 for at least 2 years, but crossing 1,000 languages within a year could happen.

Interestingly this triggers a bug in Xiphos, which had made the at one time probably reasonable assumption that no repo will have more than 200 languages. This guestimate is used to allocate memory space for an array containing the language info of a repo to create a tree menu in the module manager. I fixed the bug for myself by adjusting the assumption upwards. 1000 is probably a reasonable number nowadays. Not sure if this fix will cause other problems, so I have not committed it but passed on to Karl who will come to his own conclusions. But if other frontends do the same and use a similar lowish number, these frontends will be in trouble when the repo goes officially on line.
