Beta Bible Modules

Note: Missing verses are based upon the KJV versification. A list of common versification systems and how they vary from the NRSVA versification can be found here and here.

English Bibles

<q who="Jesus">
  Blessed
</q>
<hi type="italic">
  are
</hi>
the poor in spirit; for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
<q who="Jesus">
  Blessed
</q>
<hi type="italic">
  are
</hi>
they that mourn; for they shall be comforted.

French Bibles

German Bibles

Note: Versification of German Bibles in the old Testament is in stretches extremely different from the KJV. Both chapters and verses are of different length. As a result a lot of KJV verses, particularly at chapter ends are empty and other chapter ends are overloaded. Particular problems exist in the small prophets: Joel has 4 chapters and Malachi only 3 in original versification. As a result following verses appear empty when KJV versification is imposed.

Japanese Bibles

Note: these Bibles have a new feature OSISRuby. Requires 1.5.12!!!

Other Bibles

Wycliffe Bibles

Global problem:

• All the conf's have a typo: "an SIL font" rather than "a SIL font"
• Many modules have a problem with notes tied to headers. This may not be a module problem, but an osis2mod problem or a SWORD engine problem. For example, using SW to view Matt 5:21, there is a note marker that stands before the verse number and the heading appears after the verse number. Perhaps as a side effect, there is way too much whitespace (blank lines) surrounding the note. And the note have no content.

Beta Dictionary Modules

Beta Map Modules

Beta Daily Devotional Modules

Beta Commentary Modules

Other Beta Modules

Experimental Beta Modules

Note: The following modules are experimental. Many relate to the development of Alternate Versification Bibles, implemented as GenBooks.

Application Bugs Found During Testing

During testing pre-existing bugs may be found in an application.

MS

• In GenBooks: click on a leaf, then click on (About). (About) does not show. Sometimes nothing happens, other times another entry's content shows.
• In About w/ UTF-8 characters, e.g. GerLutherpredigten, garbage is shown because it tries to interpret it as "Latin-1".
• Does not handle WoC when milestoned quotes are used: Words of Christ

BD

• Does not handle foot-notes in anything but Bibles.
• Does not handle WoC when milestoned quotes are used: Words of Christ
• links leading to a specific Bible module do not work

GS

• Does not handle WoC when milestoned quotes are used: Words of Christ

BibleCS

• Does not handle UTF-8 in Description when listing names of modules.
• In About w/ UTF-8 characters, e.g. GerLutherpredigten, garbage is shown because it tries to interpret it as "Latin-1".
• In About w/ \uxxxxx? RTF codes, e.g. TurNTB, ? is shown.
  • Well, that's the expected behavior if the font lacks the encoded character (and so, not a software or a module bug but a font deficiency if anything).-Osk
• Does not handle WoC when milestoned quotes are used and transChange is in the WoC:
  Words <transChange type="added">of</transChange> Christ
  The words following <transChange> are not highlighted.
• Links to Bible references in Daily devotions do not work
