Using Perl to convert HTML into a ThML based Sword module is an easy and fast way. Have a look at http://www.crosswire.org/sword/develop/swordmodule/index.jsp. The tool to convert an IMP based file into a book module is called imp2gbs, which is also available for Windows. You have to bring the text into a format like: $$$/Book/Chapter 1 ThML formatted text on some lines $$$/Book/Chapter 2 Other text The layout of the module.conf file is available at http://sword.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Swordapi/ConfFileLayout Joachim -- Joachim Ansorg www.bibletime.info www.ansorgs.de _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel
