Many of the unresolved module issues in our tracker were created before the default assignee ceased all his CrossWire acitivities. We were left in the lurch because of this, and it's not an easy task for other hard-pressed volunteers to pick things up from where he left off. As a result, a lot

Aside: Something I made a few weeks ago alerted me immediately to the badly formed escaped RTF tags. I'd created a Syntax Highlighter Language file for Notepad++ called CONF for viewing module conf files. The delinquent tags showed the numbers in a different colour because of the hyphen/minus

Yes I agree - converting from Simplified to Traditional isn't straightforward. Even with a good heuristic algorithm that takes context into account, the results would need checking by a fluent reader of Traditional Chinese. BabelPad has conversion options for both directions. In past times, I

Regarding the escaped RTF tags. The SWORD Project for Windows (BibleCS) and JSword frontends properly display the RTF. However, if it is replaced with UTF-8, then BibleCS shows ugliness. We have a good number of sources with UTF-8 in the About field, that BibleCS does not handle properly. I

I have source from the publisher for the ChiNCVt that includes Song of Solomon, BUT I need to make some utf-8 encoding corrections to it, first. Converting from traditional to simplified script is straight forward. The reverse is not, because there are multiple

I just installed both modules ChiNCVt and ChiNCVs (in response to Martin's email). It's conceivable that the source text for one of these modules was derived from the source text for the other. cf. It is feasible to convert Traditional Chinese to Simplified (and vice versa). Observations: 1.
