I really do not understand why Bible Support.com cannot provide those running Modules for those using Mac Computers?  It is has been some time now and I read where Bible Support was going to have Modules for E-Sword X Programs.  Still, no Modules yet.  There are people out here that are using Mac's More than ever now and we would like to enjoy using E-Sword on our Computers. What is the hold up?

Any module that is made for Apple or for e-Sword HD or e-Sword LT is compatible with e-Sword X.

 

From Eliran Wong any module that ends on i.zip

Time. I'm in graduate school and don't have time. We aren't a for profit entity (because the files are free). We don't have a paid staff (because we don't charge for downloads). It's a trivial (in terms of time) to convert a module or even a batch of modules. The time consuming part is editing a file and re-uploading them, especially on a relatively slow DSL connection (all that's available on my street).

 

I'll see if I can find someone willing to do X number per day. If someone did 10 per day, it would "only" take ~541 days for 9 and 10 modules.

Try WinOnX2. It's an inexpensive app that allows running Windows e-Sword and modules on a Mac. Though it has issues with most Windows software, it seems to work very well for e-Sword. I use it myself. Besides, I believe you will appreciated the Windows version of e-Sword more than the OS X version. More flexibility... Easier searching... automatic pop-ups, etc. Plus, the last time I checked, WinOnX is available on the APP Store for less than the price of e-Sword X. 

 

Blessings...

I would like to make a genuine suggestion that may prove to be helpful to you.

 

If you don't know how, learn programming, and then from there, develop software for your macOS machine that would do the conversion for you. Alternatively, you can download a trial version or buy crossover for macs, and then either or both install T4 or the e-Sword PC to Apple Module Converter.

 

Blessings,
