[sword-devel] Chinese transliteration with strong's numbers

[Ben Morgan]

Module: ChiUns 2.1
Transliteration: Latin
ICU 3.4.1

diatheke -t latin -b ChiUns -f osis -k 1 Sam 1:5
I Samuel 1:5: <w  savlm="x-Strongs: H05414">gěi </w> <w savlm="x-Strongs:
H02584">hā ná </w> <w savlm="x-Strongs: H04490|x-Strongs: H0639|x-Strongs:
H0259">de què shì shuāng fēn </w> <w  savlm="x-Strongs: H0157">, yīn wèi tā
ài </w> <w savlm="x-Strongs: H02584">hā ná </w> <divineName><w
savlm="x-Strongs: H03068">. wú nài yé hé huá </w></divineName> <w
savlm="x-Strongs: H07358|x-Strongs: H05462">bù shǐ hā ná shēng yù </w>
.<milestone type="line"/>

Two problems here in this particular <w> (this is not isolated to this one,
either):
<w savlm="x-Strongs: H04490|x-Strongs: H0639|x-Strongs: H0259">de què shì
shuāng fēn </w>
1. it uses | to separate, rather than a space. This needs to be fixed in the
module.
2. the transliterator has introduced spaces after the x-Strongs:, which
breaks it badly. This needs to be fixed in the transliterator. (Note: it
looks like ICU 4 may not have some of these problems)

This causes problems in both BPBible and Xiphos - and I expect all
frontends.

God Bless,
Ben
