[sword-devel] MOD2OSIS.EXE - FAQ?

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Daniel,
	Not sure how valid the OSIS document will be that mod2osis.exe 
produces.  I've actually never tried it on windows, myself.  OSIS 2.0 
was released yesterday and we've not updated that program since 1.1.  It 
might be a good starting point though.  Hopefully, we'll have it updated 
in the next couple weeks.


	To get any of the commandline tools running, it's best to confirm that 
you have a working SWORD library installed by using one of the frontends 
for your OS (like The SWORD Project for Windows).  It this frontend can 
see and read your books, then the commandline tools should work as well. 
  Just make sure they are in the same directory as the frontend 
executable, to be safe, e.g. sword.exe

	From a quick look at your path, it would probably be:

G:\Programme\CrossWire\The Sword Project\

	Also the module names are case sensitive.

	Hope this helps,
		-Troy.
