[sword-devel] eBible.org repository minor tweak

[Chris Burrell]

It's the only supported protocol for jsword (step, and bible, ...) though I believe dm may have implemented ftp recently

Why is HTTPS not supported? It's supported by the engine and by at least BibleTime and Xiphos AFAIK.

The main repository has been updated with revised modules with Strong's numbers (5 of them). The update is about markup and conf files, with no change to source text.

Also, I used symbolic links to allow the /pub in the directory to be omitted. In other words, ftp://ftp.eBible.org/sword works just as well as ftp://ftp.eBible.org/pub/sword and ftp://ftp.eBible.org/swordbeta works just as well as ftp://ftp.eBible.org/pub/swordbeta.

If you ever wonder if you are getting the latest version and suspect ISP-level caching of defeating my updates, you can try using https://eBible.org/sword/. The HTTPS protocol isn't currently a supported repository access method, but you could use a browser to grab a copy of what you are interested in, then install locally from that copy.
