I have recently made several interlinear modules both Greek and Hebrew using Notepad++
Here is a fix that might work:
First create the module as an html module with out the tables using Tooltip NT.
One you have created the module you can then open it using a program called DB Browser this will allow you to access the module's database.
The database will be organized into tables with one labeled "Bible" you will need to extract this table to a CSV file.
You can then open the CSV file in Notepad++ to change the html tags to create the interlinear tables you want.
Once you have the made all of needed changes you need to save the CSV file.
You will then need to import the saved CSV file back into the module database overwriting the existing bible table

I picked up a Samsung Tablet at a garage sale for $2.00. It comes with Android 4.4.4.
The only MyBible app I was able to install was MyBible 4.8.9; other versions failed due to parsing error.
However, every time I start MyBible I get following error:
"MyBible has failed to retrieve the registry of downloadable modules"
...................
My guess, Android 4.4.4 no longer supported by MyBible; not really a big deal, the only advantage is the good search capabilities.
Any Bible apps with good search capabilities that would work on an old Android 4.4.4?
Sounds like you need to upgrade Android on that tablet which can be done for free

I still have and use my Windows Pocket PC. I would love to know howI can convert some of my current modules to the Pocket eSword version.
Simple Bible Reader should handle the conversions easily:

XML Format (XML)
Simple Bible Reader can be downloaded from this link:
https://trumpet-call...plebiblereader/
The program downloads ready to run without need of installation on the following versions on Windows:
Current versions of Simple Bible Reader do not support versions of Windows prior to Vista however earlier legacy versions of Simple Bible Reader can be downloaded.
Once you have downloaded and opened the program you will see the Simple Bible Reader main window (see attached image). The main window has a standard windows menu across the top with the following labels: File, Edit, Layout, Settings, Help.
To do a basic module conversion you need to first open the module you want to convert in Simple Bible Reader. To do this you need to click File from the Simple Bible Reader Menu. Clicking this will open the Files drop down menu (see attached image). From this menu you can select which type of module you wish to open and covert, or you select a batch conversion if you need to convert multiple modules.
For this example I opened a bible module in Simple Bible reader as shown in the attached image. To convert this module you will need to click file a second time to open the file drop down menu. This time from the bible select "Export Bible" this will open a "Save As" window where you will name the converted module and select which format to convert it to and the location module will be saved to The Save As window has two dropdown boxes one for the name and one that lists all of the bible modules your module can be converted to (see attached image).
Once you have named the new module and selected which type of module to convert it to, the last step is to click the Save button in the Save As window. Clicking this will start the conversion process. The conversion process is very quick and after it is complete you will find the newly converted module in your chosen location. This process is the same for converting Bibles. Books, Commentaries and Dictionaries
While most module conversions are simple basic conversions, there maybe times when you need perform a special conversions due to the formatting of a module. SBR can be adjusted for the needs by clicking Settings from SBR menu which will open the Settings drop down menu. From this menu select Preferences to open the Preferences options window (see attached image). Note be very careful with Preferences settings for further information consult the SBR users guide at the following link:
https://trumpet-call...der-user-guide/
To perform a batch conversion of multiple modules click File from the SBR menu to open Files drop menu then from the drop menu select "Batch Convert" this will open the batch conversion window (see attached image). All of the modules you wish to batch convert must be in one folder which will be the source folder once you select the source folder for the modules you then must select the location where the converted modules will be saved to, this will be the Target location. You must select the module type for both the Source location files and the Target or converted files in order for the batch conversion to work.
Simple Bible Reader also allows the use of Plugins to better aid module conversion using Simple Bible Reader. The Simple Bible Reader website offers a few plugins but you can create your own plugins for your own special conversions needs. For further information regarding plugins consult the SBR users guide mentioned above.

I have had Bible Support before, and this is the worse that Bible Support has ever been. All I see is topx or refi, or cmtx, or cmti. And you cannot download a single thing. I have lost all of my commentaries and reference books and dictionaries and Bible Support wont let me download them, I keep getting this file cannot be downloaded. It does no good to email a certain person cause they dont respond. Any one else has the same problem. I am thinking about getting rid of E0swprd all together id=f the problem is nor fixed soon.
First you need to be a member of Bible Support and sign into the site in order to download if you are trying to download with out being signed in you will get the "File cannot be downloaded" message. When you are on the Bible Support homepage, look in the upper right corner if you are signed you will see your Bible Support login in name as well as two icons for Bible Support Messenger and Notifications. If you see the words "Sign in" instead of your login in name your are not signed into the site. Once you are signed in you can download anything you want at anytime

Does anyone have James Montgomery Boice's Bible Commentaries for e Sword and My Sword? It's hard to find them
Those are copyrighted so the copyright holder would have to give permission for e-Sword modules to be created

Hi Tj...!
Thank you for your quick response. It actually widens my question...
My ordinary text in my commentary is most probably 99% of 3 MB standard text in the Calibri font, 12 point. If I don't run "Unicode Fix" that comes out perfectly, but the Hebrew quotes, come out as strange characters as indicated above. The Hebrew characters and text are all marked as Titus Cyberbit Basic, yet,, when I run "Hebrew Unicode Fixup", all my text is erased, except for my e-mail address.
My Tooltip version is V2020-04-11.
Thank you.
The font settings are for e-Sword not Tooltip as long as the correct fonts are set in e-Sword everything should work correctly with out needing use the fixups
