Hello, I'm planning to create a script to read a certain file, find the line that contains Bible references and then use that to query a bible database in order to print the verses in another file. I will be looking for lines like these: Lesson Text: Acts 5:15-20, 25; 10:12; John 3:16; Psalm 23
So, references in different chapters are separated by a semicolon. My main challenge would be make the program guess that 10:12 refers to the previous book. 15-20 means verses 15 thru 20 inclusive. I'm afraid that will take more than Regex and I never studied anything about parser tools, really. Any suggestion how I should approach this?
