txt2mod is ancient, so don't use it. Also, I recommend against GBF,
except in some circumstances when doing Bibles.
So as far as markup goes, I suppose my recommendation is to use ThML,
though we will soon enough move everything to OSIS and be able to remove
our support for non-OSIS source markup.
For input, you can use thml2gbs for general books, but I believe it is
still broken at the moment.
Aside from that, use imp2[vs|ld|gbs]. They take files in a format such as
this:
$$$key1
value of key1
$$$key2
value of key2
$$$key3
value of key3
etc.
So fill in verse references or dictionary entry names for the keys. If
you're doing a genbook, the keys follow a naming scheme like
"/level 1/level 2/level 3/level 4/etc".
