Hi.
Replacing or removing the wrong line endings shouldn't be a big problem.
A simple Perl script would do the trick.
For fixing the "misspellings" we would need to know which they are.
Btw: I tried to generate the OSIS source from PorAA with the mod2osis
tool.
Unfortunately the tool crashed with a memory allocation error.
I do not have much experience with sword itself. Did I do something
wrong?
This is the output:
