[jsword-devel] Cannot Download files from Xiphos Repo Using JSword

I tried downloading from Xiphos tonight but as DM feared there were filename
case issues because JSword looks for a mixed case name based on the first [*
name*] line in the .conf file and all the files on ftp.xiphos.org are lower
case.

Here is the problem, using Gill as an example.

JSword reads the module's initials from the first [Gill] line in gill.conf
Module initials: Gill

Xiphos has filename gill.zip
Zip file: http://ftp.xiphos.org/sword/zip/gill.zip

JSword HttpSwordInstaller tries to load
http://ftp.xiphos.org/sword/zip/Gill.zip and throws an error because there
is no Gill .zip, only a gill.zip.

It would be good to know what Sword does because clearly Sword can read all
the repositories.

For info the settings I am using in InstallManager.plugin are:
Installer.4=sword-http,Xiphos,ftp.xiphos.org,/sword/zip,/sword,,,

Regards
Martin
