Thank you for the FINNISH locale! I'm not sure your question about
different book names. But... Our locales files REQUIRE you to have a
[Book Abbrevs] entry that resolves to EXACTLY the book name translation
run thru toupper() (whatever that produces :)). If you would like both
these references. then you could do something like:
[Book Abbrevs]
LAULUJEN LAULU=22
KORKEA VEISU=22
NOTE: The first one is REQUIRED for SWORD to use your locale
correctly. This is because the first is how you translated 'Song of
Solomon' on your locale that you attached. The second (and any number
of additional variants) may be added, optionally.
Hope this helps.
-Troy.
PS. Thanks again! Please send updates as you refine. You may use the
parsekey test tool to try your locale out!
