> Hi Daniel,

> Yes, it works even using a relative path if only one file is specified but
> not the *.sfm.
> 
> It is interesting that an unrecognised character is seen at the start of
> the file, which appears as a square box in front of (or here on top of) the
> first backslash.  It also keeps the \id as in the extract below, but misses
> the book div and all book abbreviations in the verseIDs.  
> 
> From USFM2osis.pl for single book of Psalms in Windows:
> </header>
> \id PSA
> <title type="main">Leabhar na SALM</title>
> <div type="majorSection">
> <title>An Chéad Leabhar</title>
> <chapter sID=".1" osisID=".1"/>
> <div type="section">
> <title>Fíorshonas</title>
> <lg>
> <l level="1">
> <verse sID=".1.1" osisID=".1.1"/>
> Is aoibhinn don fhear nach...

> From USFM2osis.pl in Linux Psalms extract from whole Bible (Note no poetry
> markup was present when this was done, as well as combined titles):
>  <div type="book" osisID="Ps">
>    <title short="Leabhar na SALM"/>
>    <div>
>     <title type="main">Leabhar na SALM</title>
>     <chapter sID="Ps.1" osisID="Ps.1" n="1"/>
>    </div>
>    <div type="section" canonical="true">
>     <title level="1">An Chéad Leabhar -- Fíorshonas</title>
>     <verse sID="Ps.1.1" osisID="Ps.1.1"/>
>     <p> Is aoibhinn don fhear nach...
> 
> In the process, I've seen on individual files that USFM2osis.pl does
> handle poetry as well as paragraph markup.  If it handled the verseIDs
> correctly, I'd be tempted to do each Bible book separately and then try to put them
> all together into a single osis file.
> 
> Alternatively, since I'm happy with the USFM content now that I've got
> both the paragraph and poetry markup in place, as well as headings separated
> out into different levels, do you think that you'd have time to compile it
> again in Linux?

> Thanks

> I'd be willing to bet that Chris knows the answer to this one, but the 
> problem is not the USFM files but how usfm2osis.pl grabs the input from 
> them. It is possible to process one file if you give an argument with an 
> absolute path. However, if you use wildcards like *.sfm, it doesn't 
> work. I don't know why. Again, I'm guessing Chris knows how to do this, 
> but I've never figured it out. I've just used Linux.
