[sword-devel] How to add EndOfLine character in imp module

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Krzys,

	There are 2 different things that you should keep separate in your
mind.  It might help resolve your issue.

	1. Import Format: Imp, VPL, OSIS
	2. Text Markup: GBF, ThML, OSIS

#1 determines what import utility you use to import your text to create
a sword module.

#2 is designated in your .conf file and tells SWORD how to interpret
markup tags.

You can still use Imp format and markup your text with OSIS tags.  The
OSIS tag to mark Psalm lines would be something like (<lg> = line group;
<l> = line):

<lg>
<l>line 1</l>
<l>line 2</l>
</lg>

or you could cheat by putting an OSIS milestone at the end of a line:

<milestone type="line"/>


GBF might be easier for you than OSIS for just this one tag:

<CL>

closes a line.


We also try to accommodate unmarked texts.  Single newlines are ignored,
but when we see 2 consecutive newlines, we assume we should force at
least 1 newline in the output.  That's why you were partially successful
with your current modus operandi.

	Hope this helps,

		-Troy.
