Friends,

The "Lighthouse Bible" which I uploaded early this morning had a formatting flaw which kept anything after Judges from showing up in e-Sword. The problem is fixed, and the corrected version is uploaded now. So, if you downloaded it before 11:00 AM (CST), you will need to re-download it to use the whole Bible.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but thank you to Ron who pointed out that there was an issue.

Brad

Hi Brad,
Just a couple of things about the Bible which cosmetic changes that could be done.
  • Remove the white space between each verse. This is usually a "\par" or a "\line" after each verse in all the verse fields of the database, e.g., In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.\par. Its that "\par" or (if its "\line") that has to be removed.
  • No information in the Bible Information dialog about the translation. Be great to have something there about it.
Beyond that, not bad at all, mate, and ta for uploading it.

Blessings,
Stephen (Php 1:21).

Stephen,

How does one go about actually viewing the Bible information within e-Sword?

Also, In Microsoft Word, I removed all spaces between the paragraphs, and it looked correct. When opening it in T3, those spaces were back again, but there was no way of deleting them. It was just part of the spacing for some reason. If I'm not mistaken, all the Bibles I've made are like that. Any idea why?

Nevermind. I think I figured it out. Highlight all, click on the paragraph thing, then set line spacing to "exactly"

The source of information is very important, not only for copyright acknowledgement, but also so the reader has some confidence or knowledge of what's he's reading and where it came from. If the work is copyrighted and permission was received, that permission should also be stated in this area of the module. That way years from now, when someone is trying to determine whether its a "legal" module, they can refer to that area and know for sure.

That was an oversight on my part, as you will notice I have included it with all my other modules. My question still is this: where, within e-Sword, can this information be viewed?



Nevermind. Seek and ye shall find. It's nice to know that. That will be greatly helpful.

Looks like I've got some editing to do to improve some of the information in my modules. and JUST when I thought I'd be able to get back on track... :)

I have plenty of those too. I had to make myself a general checklist for modules to remember everything. And on "repetitive modules" (like where I have multiple commentaries that I merge into one single file in the end), I'll create a module-specific checklist so I remember to deal with the idiosyncrasies of that module.
