[sword-devel] MacSword and book problems

[Will Thimbleby]

Joachim,

I looked at BibleTime, and in the end I opted for my own similar 
method, that managed to get modules such as Luther to list only 
Galations. Using ObjC, but should be pretty clear.


VerseKey top, bottom;
books = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];

*module = BOTTOM;
bottom = module->KeyText();
*module = TOP;
top = module->KeyText();

for (int i = top.Testament(); i <= bottom.Testament(); ++i)
{
	for ( int j = top.Book(); j < bottom.Book(); ++j)
	{
		[books addObject:[NSString 
stringWithCString:top.books[i-1][j-1].name]];
	}
}


However this does not work for some modules such as ISV and others as 
below. I tried the BT code but had no luck.
