[sword-devel] Importing E-Sword modules

[johanma at absa.co.za]

I am very much interested in converting an e-Sword Bible to Sword, but can't find the conversion programs mentioned anywhere.

Where do I find ZefaniaTextKonvertor?
Where do I find Z-XML2OSIS?

Thanks for helping.

Johan

    *blush* Didn't read too thoroughly, did I? :)

    Having carefully read through the rest of your email :) , *and* checking 
Google, I haven't the software. I found 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/zefania-sharp/, but didn't see anything 
relevant. Maybe I missed something? It wouldn't be the first time. 
    Does it also work on Linux? In a pinch, I can beg a Windows system, but I 
would prefer not to.

   Well, for one, I didn't know there was a conversion path until today. For 
two, I would have looked for possible conversion paths, except that I was 
told repeatedly that a native version was "right around the corner."
     Thanks again,
