Kinda. :) BT maintains its own filters. The HTMLHREF filters were written specifically for GS, though they do reside within the Sword library. The RTF filters are basically for BibleCS and include occasional BibleCSy stuff. Swordweb has its own filters, again within the library. Even diatheke drags its own filters along for certain output formats. So, in an ideal world a program asks Sword for HTML and gets HTML that it can use. In reality, all of the frontend developers inevitably want more control than that permits. > (Regarding tei2mod, it is a much simpler importer but it has not > received much testing.

I don't know whether he actually used tei2mod or not, but Daniel Owens produced a nice Vietnamese-English dictionary in TEI P5 that went through tei2mod without a hitch. So that's 3 TEI encoders so far. ;) --Chris _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: [email protected] http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
