Introduction
Until Alternate Versification is implemented this page will serve as a planning page. Once it is done, it will probably be reworked to be a how to create an OSIS Bible with Alternate Versification.
Overview
Initially, a Bible with alternate versification will be a RawGenBook. The goal of changes to the SWORD engine is to make the handling of such Bibles transparent to the various front-ends as much as possible.
The conf of Bible with an alternate versification will have the following entries:
- ??
- ??
Tasks
- Create a ZGenBook driver and the ability to compress a RawGenBook.
- Allow a front-end to obtain an ordered list of Bible book names and the number of chapters in each book.
- Support parallel view of Bibles with different versifications. This requires the ability to map from one scheme to another.
Modules requiring alternate versification
- Ohienko Ukrainian translation.
The existing module had discarded the original Ukrainian verse numbers. ua4ever has recently made an OSIS file in the KJV order, but with the original Ukrainian verse references in parentheses. Download RAR file from [1]. For related discussions, see [2]. Registration and login is required.
