I think it's a good idea. I think later it will be possible to have more than one SWORD path (e..g /usr/local/sword/ and /cdrom/ etc.).
I'd be glad to have this feature ( would be cool to read modules from HDD but additionaly from /cdrom ) !

done.

I sent a mail but it looks loke it's lost somewhere.

Basically it works, but there are problems with strings like "Matthew 1:1-3", other examples like "Genesis 1:1" or "Matthew 1:1" are working.

BTW, it's possible to use the SWORD CD (at least the old one I have) directly in BibleTime if you run it with "SWORD_PATH=/cdrom bibletime".
But the problem is that localisiation is missing then.

Two possible solutions I was thinking about:
-put the locales.d directory on the top of the CD (like modules and mods.d)
and / or
-A environment string like "$SWORD_LOCALE" or "$SW_LOCALE" is used to get the location of the SWORD locale files.

Possible?

I think it's a good way to read modules from CD.
