the dbg has not done any changes on the orginal text. Clearly said on.

Die vorliegende elektronische Ausgabe gibt die letzte von Menge
bearbeitete Textfassung von 1939 inklusive der Apokryphen wieder.

Aus der Tatsache, dass die elektronische Version den Text der
Druckausgaben wiedergibt, erklärt sich auch die Verwendung der alten
Rechtschreibung.

Trotz der in der nicht überall durchgehaltenen Systematik wurden die
Überschriften unverändert aus den Druckausgaben übernommen.

I don't know where from the osis-file comes but the obligations to
create a new electronic version from a printed copy is a "urban
legend".

Ok, that seems clear. My tool is  for user that want to create SWORD
module from Zefania/Osis files without prejudices. Moreover i don't
have the intention to distribute any SWORD -Modules.

You should try to to check with the owner of the zefania site on
sourceforge and not with me.

BTW: the Onlinebible (OLB) says all bible modules and other resources
on the internet were stolen from the OLB Programm ,  I think they mean
Crosswire too
