#16093 The Gift New Testament

Posted by Deof Movestofca on 04 March 2013 - 02:59 AM

1) The Gift New Testament, translation by Paula Fether, although Matthew, Mark, Luke, and Acts are still in progress.  An interlinear version, with notes, dictionary, commentary, and translation notes are available online and downloadable in pdf format (a non-interlinear version and a dictionary can also be downloaded in epub and mobi formats).  According to an e-mail she sent me, it is not under any license.
2) Conversion to e-Sword status:
Gospel of John    COMPLETED
Romans        in progress
3) I would greatly appreciate any help in the conversion process and anyone interested is doing so is encouraged to respond to this post to avoid duplications.  Please note that I have made some minor changes, mainly in separating groups of verses (to make it easier to compare her translation to others on a verse by verse basis), division of verses (in those instances where they varied drastically from other most other versions), and placement of footnotes, as well as corrected some punctuation (mainly changed some inverted question marks and exclamation points) while avoiding changing the text or its meaning, so I recommend that anyone interested in helping download and refer to  Attached File  Gift-JohnBBLX-CMTX.zip   68.32K   0 downloads or Attached File  Gift-John-RTF.zip   45.5K   0 downloads to get a feel for what I am trying to accomplish.




#15637 Chapter/verse/multiple verse summaries/introductions using ToolTip Tool?

Posted by Deof Movestofca on 03 February 2013 - 06:10 PM

Example:

Book of [x]

This is a summary of the Book of [x].  The consensus belief is that it was written by [writer of "x"] around [such-and-such a date].  Several main themes of [x] are... [other introductory text]

 

[Summary of x, chapter 1]

[Summary of x 1:1-5]

x 1:1 [Text of verse]

x 1:2 [Text of verse]

x 1:3 [Text of verse]

x 1:4 [Text of verse]

x 1:5 [Text of verse]

[Summary of x 1: 6-10]

x 1:6 [Text of verse]

....

[Summary of x, chapter 2]

[Summary of x: 1-10]

etc.

 

Does e-Sword support the addition of such summaries/introductory material?

If so, can one use ToolTip Tool NT to add them?




#15610 Suggestion for ToolTip Tool NT user guide: add documentation for "soft...

I was completely stumped as on how to add extra lines within the same verse (e.g., for dialog or poetry) until I read Creating a bible with extra information text and would have found such information helpful and time-saving had it been included in the guide.  The only other alternative that I could think of was to add tabs and/or spaces until the lines came out right, but that I'm not sure whether that would have resulted in oddly formatted lines on different screen sizes/resolutions.




#15584 Forum not letting me move an errant end-quote tag

Posted by Deof Movestofca on 02 February 2013 - 01:08 AM

In the post this link links to, I made two replies to Katoog, saw that the post was (and still is, despite all my efforts to correct it)  formatted wrong, and then switched to BBCode Mode to fix it by moving the end-quote tag.  I don't know if it's because of auto-save or something else, but when I switched back to regular mode, the tag returned to the wrong place.  Then I posted it and tried to edit the post, but the tag stubbornly refuses to stay where it's supposed to.
